Protein synthesis initiates at a “start” codon, typically AUG. Together with recent evidence that ribosomes do not pause at ORF-internal Shine-Dalgarno motifs, these results suggest the presence of ORF-internal Shine-Dalgarno-like motifs may be inconsequential, perhaps because internal regions of prokaryotic mRNAs may be structurally “shielded” from translation initiation. Alternative informatics approaches show that most prokaryotes have only slight, if any, specific depletion of Shine-Dalgarno-like sequences from open reading frames. We suggest previous methods are partly detecting a non-specific depletion of G-rich sequences. Depletion of the same G-rich sequences was seen by these methods even in eukaryotes, which do not use the Shine-Dalgarno mechanism. Despite this lack of an anti-Shine-Dalgarno, half of these species still displayed depletion of Shine-Dalgarno-like sequences when analyzed by previous methods. However, we analyzed 128 species from diverse phyla where the 16S rRNA gene(s) lack the anti-Shine-Dalgarno sequence, and so the 16S rRNA is incapable of interacting with Shine-Dalgarno-like sequences. This may be because hybridization of the 16S rRNA at Shine-Dalgarnos inside genes would slow translation or induce internal initiation. coli) are depleted from open reading frames of most prokaryotes.

Hybridization between the Shine-Dalgarno sequence and the anti-Shine-Dalgarno region of the16S rRNA ( CCUCCU) directs the ribosome to the start AUG of the mRNA for translation. 2010 76:6370–6376.The Shine-Dalgarno motif occurs in front of prokaryotic start codons, and is complementary to the 3’ end of the 16S ribosomal RNA.

Bacillus subtilis: from soil bacterium to super-secreting cell factory. In case of secreted proteins, the 5' sequence encoding the signal peptide for Sec-depended secretion should also be considered.īacillus subtilis Production optimization Ribosome binding site Spacer Translation initiation. Optimizing production yields thus may require screenings for optimal spacer sequence lengths. Our results confirm the importance of the 5' end sequence of a target gene for translation initiation. Also, the effect of a putative alternative translation initiation site could be ruled out. This conclusion was corroborated by RT qPCR revealing only slightly different amounts of transcript. This pattern was observed for both secreted proteins fused to SPEpr indicating a dominant role also of the nucleotide sequence encoding the respective signal peptide for translation initiation. Remarkably, fusions with SPEpr resulted in a twofold lower production yield with 6 or 7nt spacers reaching a maximum with 10-12nt spacers. Fusions with signal peptides SPPel or SPBsn revealed the highest production yields with spacers of 7-10nt length. Again, longer spacer sequences resulted in up to tenfold increased yields of extracellular proteins. The production of secreted proteins was tested with cutinase Cut and swollenin EXLX1 which were N-terminally fused to one of the Sec-dependent signal peptides SPPel, SPEpr or SPBsn. For the intracellular proteins GFPmut3 and β-glucuronidase, an increase of spacer lengths from 4 to 7-9 nucleotides resulted in a gradual increase of product yields up to 27-fold reaching a plateau for even longer spacers. The shuttle vector pBSMul1 containing the strong constitutive promoter P HpaII and the optimal Shine Dalgarno sequence TAAGGAGG was used as a template to construct a series of vectors with spacer lengths varying from 4 to 12 adenosines. Here, we have studied the effects of varying spacer sequence lengths in vivo on the production yield of different intra- and extracellular proteins. To this end, a crucial process is translation initiation which takes place at the ribosome binding site enclosing the Shine Dalgarno sequence, the start codon of the target gene and a short spacer sequence in between. Bacillus subtilis is widely used for the industrial production of recombinant proteins, mainly due to its high secretion capacity, but higher production yields can be achieved only if bottlenecks are removed.
