A Comparison of Structural and Evolutionary Attributes of <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Thermus thermophilus</i> Small Ribosomal Subunits: Signatures of Thermal Adaptation
<div><p>Here we compare the structural and evolutionary attributes of <i>Thermus thermophilus</i> and <i>Escherichia coli</i> small ribosomal subunits (SSU). Our results indicate that with few exceptions, thermophilic 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) is densely packed compared to that of mesophilic at most of the analogous spatial regions. In addition, we have located species-specific cavity clusters (SSCCs) in both species. <i>E. coli</i> SSCCs are numerous and larger compared to <i>T. thermophilus</i> SSCCs, which again indicates densely packed thermophilic 16S rRNA. Thermophilic ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) have longer disordered regions than their mesophilic homologs and they experience larger disorder-to-order transitions during SSU-assembly. This is reflected in the predicted higher conformational changes of thermophilic r-proteins compared to their mesophilic homologs during SSU-assembly. This high conformational change of thermophilic r-proteins may help them to associate with the 16S ribosomal RNA with high complementary interfaces, larger interface areas, and denser molecular contacts, compared to those of mesophilic. Thus, thermophilic protein-rRNA interfaces are tightly associated with 16S rRNA than their mesophilic homologs. Densely packed 16S rRNA interior and tight protein-rRNA binding of <i>T. thermophilus</i> (compared to those of <i>E. coli</i>) are likely the signatures of its thermal adaptation. We have found a linear correlation between the free energy of protein-RNA interface formation, interface size, and square of conformational changes, which is followed in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic SSU. Disorder is associated with high protein-RNA interface polarity. We have found an evolutionary tendency to maintain high polarity (thereby disorder) at protein-rRNA interfaces, than that at rest of the protein structures. However, some proteins exhibit exceptions to this general trend.</p></div

Two examples of how significant biomarkers are identified from the maximal homogeneous biclusters (i.e., <i>MFCHOI</i>) for each class-label for each dataset.
<p>Here, we are shown intersection of only four maximal homogeneous biclusters for (a) the class-label <i>AC</i> and (b) the class-label <i>SCC</i>, individually (for Dataset 1). For the class <i>AC</i>, CENPA-, TTK-, KIF11-, KIF18B- and ZNF367- are the top frequent genes as they exist in the four biclusters (see (a)); similarly, for the class <i>SCC</i>, SHROOM3- is top frequent gene as it exists in the four biclusters (see (b)).</p
