Nsa1 is associated with translating ribosomes in the rix7Δ14N mutant. Whole cell lysates derived from wild-type RIX7 and rix7Δ14N mutant strains (both expressing Nsa1-TAP), which were first grown at 23°C and then shifted for 3 h to 30°C, were analyzed by sucrose gradient centrifugation under polysome-conserving conditions (A) or polysome runoff conditions (B). The profiles were recorded at A254. The peaks of free 40S and 60S subunits, 80S ribosomes, and polysomes are indicated. Half-mers are indicated by arrowheads. Aliquots of the total cell lysate (T) and the fractions from the gradient were analyzed by Western blotting using anti-ProtA and anti-Rpl3 antibodies. The fractions boxed with broken lines indicate the 80S fractions into which the polysomes are redistributed under polysome runoff conditions.
