Gentry R, Ide N, Comunale V, Hartwick E, Kinz-Thompson C, Gonzalez Jr R
Nature . 2024 Dec; 637(8046):736-743. PMID: 39663447
During translation initiation, mRNA molecules must be identified and activated for loading into a ribosome. In this rate-limiting step, the heterotrimeric protein eukaryotic initiation factor eIF4F must recognize and productively...

Jang S, Ray K, Lynall D, Shepard K, Nuckolls C, Gonzalez Jr R
bioRxiv . 2024 Jun; PMID: 38853856
Recent studies have demonstrated that the mechanisms through which biopolymers like RNA interconvert between multiple folded structures are critical for their cellular functions. A major obstacle to elucidating these mechanisms...

Ide N, Gentry R, Rudbach M, Yoo K, Velez P, Comunale V, et al.
bioRxiv . 2024 May; PMID: 38712078
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor (eIF) 3 is a multi-subunit protein complex that binds both ribosomes and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to drive a diverse set of mechanistic steps during translation of...

Verma A, Ray K, Bodick M, Kinz-Thompson C, Gonzalez Jr R
Biophys J . 2024 Jan; 123(17):2765-2780. PMID: 38268189
Time-dependent single-molecule experiments contain rich kinetic information about the functional dynamics of biomolecules. A key step in extracting this information is the application of kinetic models, such as hidden Markov...

Ray K, Verma A, Gonzalez Jr R, Kinz-Thompson C
Proc Math Phys Eng Sci . 2023 Sep; 478(2266):20220177. PMID: 37767180
A critical step in data analysis for many different types of experiments is the identification of features with theoretically defined shapes in -dimensional datasets; examples of this process include finding...

Hassan A, Byju S, Freitas F, Roc C, Pender N, Nguyen K, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2022 Dec; 51(2):919-934. PMID: 36583339
Protein synthesis by the ribosome requires large-scale rearrangements of the 'small' subunit (SSU; ∼1 MDa), including inter- and intra-subunit rotational motions. However, with nearly 2000 structures of ribosomes and ribosomal...

Jang S, Dubnik S, Hon J, Hellenkamp B, Lynall D, Shepard K, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2022 Dec; 145(1):402-412. PMID: 36547391
We have developed and used single-molecule field-effect transistors (smFETs) to characterize the conformational free-energy landscape of RNA stem-loops. Stem-loops are one of the most common RNA structural motifs and serve...

Bailey E, Gottesman M, Gonzalez Jr R
J Mol Biol . 2021 Oct; 434(2):167330. PMID: 34710399
In bacteria, transcription is coupled to, and can be regulated by, translation. Although recent structural studies suggest that the N-utilization substance G (NusG) transcription factor can serve as a direct,...
