A Novel Actinobacteria-Specific Ribosome Hibernation Factor in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

| BioRxiv
Abstract Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), persists within its host for long periods. Treatment of TB requires prolonged administration of antibiotics, some of which target Mtb ribosomes, the protein synthesizing machine of the cell. We determined high-resolution cryo-EM structures of Mtb ribosomes obtained from biofilms under zinc-depleted conditions that are expected to induce ribosome hibernation.

Drug resistance through ribosome splitting and rRNA disordering in mycobacteria

Abstract HflX is known to rescue stalled ribosomes and is implicated in antibiotic resistance in several bacteria. Here we present several high-resolution cryo-EM structures of mycobacterial HflX in complex with the ribosome and its 50S subunit, with and without antibiotics. These structures reveal a distinct mechanism for HflX-mediated ribosome splitting and antibiotic resistance in mycobacteria.
