Ribosome Analysis Services

Background Our Service Highlights FAQs Published Data Resource

As an important macromolecular translation machine in organisms, ribosomes are inseparable from life activities such as protein synthesis and cell proliferation. In recent years, scientists have become more and more interested in the study of ribosome-related factors. As a global reputable ribosome service provider, Creative Biolabs is pleased to provide ribosome analysis services to our customers worldwide.

Background

Ribosomes are complexes of RNA and protein. Ribosomes are large molecular machines that translate sequences of messenger RNA into proteins in all living cells. Furthermore, there is a close correlation between ribosome biogenesis and cell proliferation. There is increasing evidence that dysregulated ribosome biosynthesis is closely associated with an increased risk of cancer and metabolic disorders. Analysis of ribosomes has identified some of the factors involved in these complex processes, providing new perspectives for further in-depth study of ribosome properties and functions.

Our Service

Ribosomal Transcriptome

Both biological sciences and medicine rely on rapid genomic and transcriptomic analysis techniques to probe cellular state, physiology, and activity. Among the technologies, microarray technology and next-generation transcript sequencing (RNA-Seq) are the most advanced. Among them, RNA-Seq offers limitless possibilities in modern biological analysis. For the ribosomal transcriptome, the analysis mainly involves cDNA libraries from short mRNA fragments covered by ribosomes.

Ribosomal Proteomics

In recent years, proteomics research has made great progress with the development of technology. But ribosomal proteomics still lags. Recently, with the rise of the ribosomal filtering hypothesis and ribosome-specific regulatory capabilities, ribosomal proteomics has emerged as an important strategy for understanding the mechanism of ribosome translation. Undoubtedly, the development of ribosomal proteomics provides a promising strategy for explaining the properties and roles of ribosomal proteins.

Translatome profiling: methods for genome-scale analysis of mRNA translation

BRIEFINGS IN FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS

Authors: Helen A. King, André P. Gerber
Abstract: During the past decade, there has been a rapidly increased appreciation of the role of translation as a key regulatory node in gene expression. Thereby, the development of methods to infer the translatome, which refers to the entirety of mRNAs associated with ribosomes for protein synthesis, has facilitated the discovery of new principles and mechanisms of translation and expanded our view of the underlying logic of protein synthesis. Here, we review the three main methodologies for translatome analysis, and we highlight some of the recent discoveries made using each technique. We first discuss polysomal profiling, a classical technique that involves the separation of mRNAs depending on the number of bound ribosomes using a sucrose gradient, and which has been combined with global analysis tools such as DNA microarrays or high-throughput RNA sequencing to identify the RNAs in polysomal fractions. We then introduce ribosomal profiling, a recently established technique that enables the mapping of ribosomes along mRNAs at near-nucleotide resolution on a global scale. We finally refer to ribosome affinity purification techniques that are based on the cell-type–specific expression of tagged ribosomal proteins, allowing the capture of translatomes from specialized cells in organisms. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these three main techniques in the pursuit of defining the translatome, and we speculate about future developments.
