Abstract

Isolation of ribosomal particles is an essential step in the study of ribosomal components as well as in the analysis of trans-acting factors that interact with the ribosome to regulate protein synthesis and modulate the expression profile of the cell in response to different environmental conditions. In this protocol, we describe a procedure for the isolation of 70S ribosomes from the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (hereafter Synechocystis). We have successfully used this protocol in our study of the cyanobacterial ribosomal-associated protein LrtA, which is a homologue of bacterial HPF (hibernation promoting factor) (Galmozzi et al., 2016).

Background

Few biochemical studies have been reported for cyanobacterial ribosomes. Anabaena variabilis strain M3 (PCC 7118, ATCC 27892) 70S ribosomal particles have been isolated by differential centrifugation and then, ribosomal proteins were analysed by two-dimensional electrophoresis (Sato et al., 1998). Ribosomes have also been prepared from Synechococcus sp. PCC 6301 cells using a protocol combining differential centrifugation and sucrose step gradients (Sugita et al., 2000). Fractionation of cell extracts by differential centrifugation has also been employed in the preparation of ribosomal samples for the development of an in vitro translation system in different Synechococcus strains (Mutsuda and Sugiura, 2006). The method described here for Synechocystis, based on the one described for Synechococcus (Sugita et al., 2000), allows purification of ribosomal particles using ultracentrifugation of linear sucrose gradients.
