Co-regulation of translation in protein complexes

Open access

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Co-regulation of gene expression has been known for many years, and studied widely both globally and for individual genes. Nevertheless, most analyses concerned transcriptional control, which in case of physically interacting proteins and protein complex subunits may be of secondary importance. This research is the first quantitative analysis that provides global-scale evidence for translation co-regulation among associated proteins. RESULTS: By analyzing the results of our previous quantitative model of translation, we have demonstrated that protein production rates plus several other translational parameters, such as mRNA and protein abundance, or number of produced proteins from a gene, are well concerted between stable complex subunits and party hubs. This may be energetically favorable during synthesis of complex building blocks and ensure their accurate production in time. In contrast, for connections with regulatory particles and date hubs translational co-regulation is less visible, indicating that in these cases maintenance of accurate levels of interacting particles is not necessarily beneficial. CONCLUSIONS: Similar results obtained for distantly related model organisms, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Homo sapiens, suggest that the phenomenon of translational co-regulation applies to the variety of living organisms and concerns many complex constituents. This phenomenon was also observed among the set of functionally linked proteins from Escherichia coli operons. This leads to the conclusion that translational regulation of a protein should always be studied with respect to the expression of its primary interacting partners.

  • Literature broadly has reported common co-regulation of genes in protein complexes at both transcription and translational levels.

    “This is a unique finding since literature broadly has reported common co-regulation of genes in protein complexes at both transcription and translational levels96–102.”

    From EXOSC3 G191 Variants Trigger System-Wide Recalibration of RNA Processing Machinery (2026) · cites this paper as [97]

    The Background says transcriptional co-regulation of protein-complex genes was well studied, and the Conclusions report translational co-regulation among interacting proteins. But the Abstract Background calls this the first quantitative global-scale evidence for translational co-regulation among associated proteins, so the claim overstates how broadly earlier literature had reported it at both levels. Our copy provides no page numbers for these sections. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
