When adipocytes were exposed to [3H]leucine for times ranging from 5 to 180 s, leucine was found to enter cells rapidly and equilibrate with the cell interior within 5 s. After an additional 15-30 s [3H]leucine was incorporated into nascent protein, and the rate of incorporation was linear for up to 6 h in both control and insulin-treated cells. Since treatment of adipocytes with 10 ng/ml insulin enhanced the rate of leucine incorporation 2-3-fold with minimal or no effect on the rate of protein degradation or leucine uptake, we conclude that the predominant effect of insulin is on enhancement of protein synthesis. To assess the time required for insulin to stimulate protein synthesis, we preincubated cells with 10 ng/ml of insulin for various times from 2 to 30 min and then measured [3H]leucine incorporation into protein during a 4-min assay. These results revealed that the insulin stimulation of protein synthesis is rapid (t 1/2 of 4.4 min), but 9-fold slower than insulin activation of glucose transport (t 1/2 less than 0.5 min under identical conditions). In contrast to the rapidity of insulin activation, we found that deactivation proceeded at much slower rates (t 1/2 of 32 and 21 min for protein synthesis and glucose transport, respectively). Desensitization of the glucose transport system has previously been shown to occur after adipocytes are exposed to high glucose and insulin. To examine the specificity of desensitization, we treated cells for 6 h with 20 mM glucose and 25 ng/ml insulin and then examined insulin sensitivity and maximal insulin responsiveness of both the glucose transport and protein synthesis systems. After treatment, the glucose transport was markedly insulin-resistant (60% loss in maximal insulin responsiveness and a marked loss in insulin sensitivity), whereas the protein synthesis system exhibited neither diminished insulin responsiveness nor loss of insulin sensitivity. In fact, insulin sensitivity actually increased, as indicated by the finding that less insulin was required to stimulate protein synthesis (insulin ED50 values of 0.25 and 18 ng/ml at 0 and 6 h of treatment). From these studies we conclude that desensitization of the glucose transport system by glucose and insulin treatment appears to be specific for this particular effector system and does not reflect a state of generalized cellular insulin resistance. 相似文献

Using an improved method to quantify the level of phosphorylation of the S6 ribosomal protein, we have analyzed the effect of growth stimuli on S6 phosphorylation in quiescent murine Swiss/3T3 cells to see if it can be dissociated from the later increase in DNA synthesis. Saturating concentrations of epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin and serum each stimulate phosphorylation of the S6 ribosomal protein to the same maximal level; this is not so for DNA synthesis. Subsaturating concentrations of EGF and insulin act synergistically to stimulate both S6 phosphorylation and DNA synthesis, but qualitatively the two synergistic interactions are expressed differently. Insulin increases the maximal response of DNA synthesis to EGF, whereas it decreases the concentration of EGF required for half-maximal stimulation of S6 phosphorylation. We conclude that S6 phosphorylation is not a principal regulator of DNA synthesis, and that insulin and EGF regulate both S6 phosphorylation and DNA synthesis through different, but interacting, pathways of action. 相似文献

The activation of Xenopus oocyte ribosomal protein S6 kinase during oocyte maturation was investigated. Insulin treatment caused a rapid three-fold activation of S6 kinase that returned to near basal levels by 2 h postinsulin. This was followed by a later fivefold increase from 2 to 5 h with insulin, culminating with germinal vesicle breakdown. Pretreatment of oocytes with multiple protein synthesis inhibitors increased the level of basal activity, but did not greatly alter the time course of early activation of S6 kinase by insulin. In contrast, the later increase in S6 kinase activity was completely inhibited by pretreatment with cycloheximide. However, near maximal increases in S6 kinase activity occurred following injection of maturation-promoting factor, even in the presence of multiple protein synthesis inhibitors. Brief exposure to cycloheximide after 30 min or more of insulin stimulation increased the magnitude of insulin-stimulated activity without changing the overall pattern of activity increase. These results suggest that a rapidly turning-over inhibitor of S6 kinase exists, and the activation of S6 kinase by insulin occurs by protein synthesis-dependent and -independent mechanisms. 相似文献

The high efficiency of protein deposition during the neonatal period is driven by high rates of protein synthesis, which are maximally stimulated after feeding. Infusion of amino acids, but not insulin, reproduces the feeding-induced stimulation of liver protein synthesis. To determine whether amino acid-stimulated liver protein synthesis is independent of insulin in neonates, and to examine the role of amino acids and insulin in the regulation of translation initiation in neonatal liver, we performed pancreatic glucose-amino acid clamps in overnight-fasted 7-day-old pigs. Pigs (n = 9-12/group) were infused with insulin at 0, 10, 22, and 110 ng.kg(-0.66).min(-1) to achieve 0, 2, 6, and 30 microU/ml insulin, respectively. At each insulin dose, amino acids were maintained at fasting or fed levels or, in conjunction with the highest insulin dose, allowed to fall to below fasting levels. Insulin had no effect on the fractional rate of protein synthesis in liver. Amino acids increased fractional protein synthesis rates in liver at each dose of insulin, including the 0 microU/ml dose. There was a dose-response effect of amino acids on liver protein synthesis. Amino acids and insulin increased protein S6 kinase and 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) phosphorylation; however, only amino acids decreased formation of the inactive 4E-BPI.eukaryotic initiation factor-4E (eIF4E) complex. The results suggest that amino acids regulate liver protein synthesis in the neonate by modulating the availability of eIF4E for 48S ribosomal complex formation and that this response does not require insulin. 相似文献

In freshly isolated rat adipocytes, leucine or its analog norleucine activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-signaling pathway. This results in phosphorylation of the ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) and eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein-1 (4E-BP1), two proteins involved in the initiation phase of protein synthesis. The purpose of the studies reported herein was to address the question of whether or not these in vitro effects of leucine and norleucine on adipocytes could be extended to the intact animal and to other tissues. To accomplish this, food-deprived (18 h) male Sprague-Dawley rats were orally administered solutions (2.5 ml/100 g body wt) containing normal saline (0.9% NaCl), a carbohydrate mixture (26.2% D-glucose and 26.2% sucrose), leucine (5.4%), or norleucine (5.4%). The protein synthetic responses of adipose tissue were measured and compared with those of other tissues. In addition, S6K1 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation was measured, as was the plasma concentration of insulin and tissue ATP concentrations. Leucine administration stimulated protein synthesis in adipose tissue, gastrocnemius, and kidney but not in liver and heart. Norleucine stimulated protein synthesis in all of the tissues tested but, in contrast to leucine, without affecting plasma insulin concentrations. The carbohydrate meal had no effect on protein synthesis in any tissue tested but elicited a robust increase in plasma insulin. These findings provide support for a role of leucine as a direct-acting nutrient signal for stimulation of protein synthesis in adipose tissue as well as other select tissues. In adipose tissue, the effects of the different treatment conditions on the acute regulation of protein synthesis closely correlated with changes in phosphorylation of S6K1 and 4E-BP1; however, this correlation did not exist in all tissues examined. This result implies that leucine or norleucine may acutely stimulate protein synthesis, at least in some tissues, by a mechanism that is independent of both S6K1 and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation. 相似文献

In skeletal muscle of adults, sepsis reduces protein synthesis by depressing translation initiation and induces resistance to branched-chain amino acid stimulation. Normal neonates maintain a high basal muscle protein synthesis rate that is sensitive to amino acid stimulation. In the present study, we determined the effect of amino acids on protein synthesis in skeletal muscle and other tissues in septic neonates. Overnight-fasted neonatal pigs were infused with endotoxin (LPS, 0 and 10 microg.kg(-1).h(-1)), whereas glucose and insulin were maintained at fasting levels; amino acids were clamped at fasting or fed levels. In the presence of fasting insulin and amino acids, LPS reduced protein synthesis in longissimus dorsi (LD) and gastrocnemius muscles and increased protein synthesis in the diaphragm, but had no effect in masseter and heart muscles. Increasing amino acids to fed levels accelerated muscle protein synthesis in LD, gastrocnemius, masseter, and diaphragm. LPS stimulated protein synthesis in liver, lung, spleen, pancreas, and kidney in fasted animals. Raising amino acids to fed levels increased protein synthesis in liver of controls, but not LPS-treated animals. The increase in muscle protein synthesis in response to amino acids was associated with increased mTOR, 4E-BP1, and S6K1 phosphorylation and eIF4G-eIF4E association in control and LPS-infused animals. These findings suggest that amino acids stimulate skeletal muscle protein synthesis during acute endotoxemia via mTOR-dependent ribosomal assembly despite reduced basal protein synthesis rates in neonatal pigs. However, provision of amino acids does not further enhance the LPS-induced increase in liver protein synthesis. 相似文献

Insulin regulation of protein biosynthesis in differentiated 3T3 adipocytes. Regulation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

The effect of insulin on protein biosynthesis was examined in differentiated 3T3-L1 and 3T3-F442A adipocytes. Insulin altered the relative rate of synthesis of specific proteins independent of its ability to hasten conversion of the fibroblast (preadipocyte) phenotype to the adipocyte phenotype. Although more than one pattern of response to insulin was observed, we focused on the induction of a Mr 33,000 protein which was identified as the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Exposure of 3T3 adipocytes to insulin throughout differentiation specifically increased GAPDH activity and protein content by 2- to 3-fold as compared to 3T3 adipocytes differentiated in the absence of insulin. These changes in enzyme activity and content could be accounted for by a 4-fold increase in the relative rate of synthesis of GAPDH and a 9-fold increase in hybridizable mRNA levels. Within 2 h of insulin addition to 3T3 adipocytes differentiated in the absence of hormone, hybridizable GAPDH mRNA levels increased 3-fold, and within 24 h GAPDH mRNA levels increased 8-fold, and [35S] methionine incorporation into GAPDH protein increased 5-fold. The increase in GAPDH mRNA and GAPDH biosynthesis could be demonstrated using physiologic concentrations of insulin (0.24 nM), indicating that these effects are mediated through a specific interaction with the insulin receptor. These studies demonstrate that insulin, as the sole hormonal perturbant, can increase the synthesis of certain 3T3 adipocyte proteins by altering the cellular content of a specific mRNA. 相似文献

An increase in intracellular pH (pHi) and ribosomal protein S6 phosphorylation during Xenopus oocyte maturation has been reported by several laboratories. In this paper, the question of whether the pHi increase is necessary to induce S6 phosphorylation, an increase in protein synthesis, or germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) was assessed using sodium-free medium and the putative Na/H exchange blocker amiloride. Sodium-free medium decreased basal pHi by 0.3 unit and prevented increases in pHi in response to both insulin and progesterone, but S6 phosphorylation occurred normally with both hormones. GVBD occurred normally in sodium-free medium in response to progesterone, but the effect of insulin was reduced by 60%. In sodium-containing medium, amiloride inhibited GVBD and prevented insulin or progesterone-induced increases in pHi but the hormone-induced increase in S6 phosphorylation was unaffected. In the absence of sodium, amiloride inhibited GVBD but did not affect pHi, indicating that amiloride inhibits GVBD by a pHi-independent mechanism. Both progesterone and insulin increased protein synthesis in oocytes by 35%, and amiloride inhibited basal protein synthesis but not the increase with hormone. In the presence of cholera toxin, protein synthesis increases with insulin were inhibited but increased S6 phosphorylation was unaffected. Priming of animals with pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin prior to oocyte isolation reduced the time required for progesterone-induced GVBD, and increased the synchrony of GVBD of the population. Priming also increased oocyte basal pHi and basal protein synthesis as well as the magnitude of the increase in protein synthesis with progesterone but had no effect on S6 phosphorylation. The results indicate that in Xenopus oocytes increased pHi is not necessary for increased S6 phosphorylation, increased protein synthesis, or GVBD in response to insulin or progesterone nor is increased S6 phosphorylation sufficient for GVBD or increased protein synthesis. 相似文献

Pancreastatin,a chromogranin A-derived peptide,activates protein synthesis signaling cascade in rat adipocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
González-Yanes C Sánchez-Margalet V 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2002,299(4):525-531
Pancreastatin (PST), a chromogranin A-derived peptide, has been found to modulate glucose, lipid, and protein metabolism in rat adipocytes. PST has an overall counterregulatory effect on insulin action by activating a specific receptor-effector system (Galpha(q/11) protein-PLC-beta-PKC(classical)). However, PST stimulates both basal and insulin-mediated protein synthesis in rat adipocytes. In order to further investigate the mechanisms underlying the effect of PST stimulating protein synthesis, we sought to study the regulation of different components of the core translational machinery by the signaling triggered by PST. Thus, we studied ribosomal p70 S6 kinase, phosphorylation of the cap-binding protein (initiation factor) eIF4E, and phosphorylation of the eIF4E-binding protein 4E-BP1 (PHAS-I). We have found that PST stimulates the S6 kinase activity, as assessed by kinase assay using specific immunoprecipitates and substrate. This effect was checked by Western blot with specific antibodies against the phosphorylated S6 kinase. Thus, PST dose-dependently stimulates Thr421/Ser424 phosphorylation of S6 kinase. Moreover, PST promotes phosphorylation of regulatory sites in 4E-BP1 (PHAS-I) (Thr37, Thr46). The initiation factor eIF4E itself, whose activity is also increased upon phosphorylation, is phosphorylated in Ser209 by PST stimulation. Finally, we have found that these effects of PST on S6 kinase and the translation machinery can be blocked by preventing the activation of PKC. These results indicate that PST stimulates protein synthesis machinery by activating PKC and provides some evidence of the molecular mechanisms involved, i.e., the activation of S6K and the phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 (PHAS-I) and the initiation factor eIF4E. 相似文献

An insulin-stimulated (ribosomal S6) protein kinase from soluble extracts of H4 hepatoma cells 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Insulin stimulates the phosphorylation of the 40 S ribosomal subunit protein, S6, in intact 32P-labeled H4IIE-C3 cells, a rat hepatoma line. Cell-free cytosolic extracts from H4 cells exhibit a 5- to 10-fold increase in S6 protein kinase activity (measured by transfer of 32P to exogenous 40 S rat liver ribosomal subunits) when prepared from cells exposed to insulin prior to homogenization. Stimulation of S6 phosphorylation in intact cells and activation of S6 protein kinase in cell-free extracts are both detectable within 2 min after insulin, and are maximally stimulated by 10 min. Half-maximal stimulation is observed at 10(-11) M insulin. The stimulated S6 kinase activity requires ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid to be present during the kinase assay for full expression. Despite the presence of a 5- to 10-fold increase in S6 protein kinase activity, the extracts from insulin-treated cells exhibit no stimulated kinase activity toward casein, histone, or ATP-citrate lyase assayed under the conditions employed for S6. Thus, insulin mediates the rapid activation of protein kinase specific for ribosomal protein S6 by an as yet unidentified mechanism. 相似文献

Insulin stimulated protein synthesis in L6 myoblasts but did not increase the labelling of DAG or the release of phosphocholine from phosphatidylcholine. The DAG lipase inhibitor, RHC 80267, more than doubled the amount of label appearing in DAG but did not stimulate protein synthesis. Even in the presence of the DAG lipase inhibitor insulin failed to have any effect on DAG labelling, and conversely RHC 80267 did not modify the insulin-induced increase in protein synthesis. These results suggest that endogenous DAG production is not involved in the stimulation of protein synthesis by insulin. However, exogenous diacylglycerols (1-oleoyl-2-acetyl glycerol and 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl glycerol) both stimulated protein synthesis in L6 myoblasts. The efficacy of the former (arachidonatefree) DAG suggested that their action was by activation of protein kinase C rather than by arachidonate release and prostaglandin formation. Ibuprofen, an inhibitor of cyclo-oxygenase failed to block the effects of insulin whereas a second cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin had only a partial inhibitory effect. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, RO-31-8220, totally blocked the effect of insulin. Since indomethacin is also recognised to inhibit phospholipase A2, the data suggests that insulin acts on protein synthesis in myoblasts by arachidonate activation of PKC. 相似文献

Enhanced protein synthesis in skeletal muscle after ingestion of a balanced meal in postabsorptive rats is mimicked by oral leucine administration. To assess the contribution of insulin to the protein synthetic response to leucine, food-deprived (18 h) male rats (approximately 200 g) were intravenously administered a primed-constant infusion of somatostatin (60 microg + 3 microg.kg(-1).h(-1)) or vehicle beginning 1 h before administration of leucine (1.35 g L-leucine/kg) or saline (control). Rats were killed 15, 30, 45, 60, or 120 min after leucine administration. Compared with controls, serum insulin concentrations were elevated between 15 and 45 min after leucine administration but returned to basal values by 60 min. Somatostatin maintained insulin concentrations at basal levels throughout the time course. Protein synthesis was increased between 30 and 60 min, and this effect was blocked by somatostatin. Enhanced assembly of the mRNA cap-binding complex (composed of eukaryotic initiation factors eIF4E and eIF4G) and hyperphosphorylation of the eIF4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1), the 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K1), and the ribosomal protein S6 (rp S6) were observed as early as 15 min and persisted for at least 60 min. Somatostatin attenuated the leucine-induced changes in 4E-BP1 and S6K1 phosphorylation and completely blocked the change in rp S6 phosphorylation but had no effect on eIF4G small middle dot eIF4E assembly. Overall, the results suggest that the leucine-induced enhancement of protein synthesis and the phosphorylation states of 4E-BP1 and S6K1 are facilitated by the transient increase in serum insulin. In contrast, assembly of the mRNA cap-binding complex occurs independently of increases in insulin and, by itself, is insufficient to stimulate rates of protein synthesis in skeletal muscle after leucine administration. 相似文献

We have purified to homogeneity and analyzed the amino acid composition of a small (Mr 14,000), basic (pI 9.0) protein from human plasma. This has been named acylation stimulating protein (ASP) because it markedly stimulates triacylglycerol synthesis in human adipocytes. As well, it stimulates triacylglycerol synthesis in human skin fibroblasts cultured from normal individuals. Characteristic saturation curves for the cell metabolic responses to ASP were observed in both cell types with higher stimulation of oleate incorporation into triacylglycerol being observed in adipocytes. The stimulation of triacylglycerol synthesis was much greater with ASP than with insulin. Neither fatty acid binding protein nor albumin was able to mimic the ASP effect. 相似文献

Chronic somatotropin (pST) treatment in pigs increases muscle protein synthesis and circulating insulin, a known promoter of protein synthesis. Previously, we showed that the pST-mediated rise in insulin could not account for the pST-induced increase in muscle protein synthesis when amino acids were maintained at fasting levels. This study aimed to determine whether the pST-induced increase in insulin promotes skeletal muscle protein synthesis when amino acids are provided at fed levels and whether the response is associated with enhanced translation initiation factor activation. Growing pigs were treated with pST (0 or 180 microg x kg(-1) x day(-1)) for 7 days, and then pancreatic-glucose-amino acid clamps were performed. Amino acids were raised to fed levels in the presence of either fasted or fed insulin concentrations; glucose was maintained at fasting throughout. Muscle protein synthesis was increased by pST treatment and by amino acids (with or without insulin) (P<0.001). In pST-treated pigs, fed, but not fasting, amino acid concentrations further increased muscle protein synthesis rates irrespective of insulin level (P<0.02). Fed amino acids, with or without raised insulin concentrations, increased the phosphorylation of S6 kinase (S6K1) and eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4E-binding protein 1 (4EBP1), decreased inactive 4EBP1.eIF4E complex association, and increased active eIF4E.eIF4G complex formation (P<0.02). pST treatment did not alter translation initiation factor activation. We conclude that the pST-induced stimulation of muscle protein synthesis requires fed amino acid levels, but not fed insulin levels. However, under the current conditions, the response to amino acids is not mediated by the activation of translation initiation factors that regulate mRNA binding to the ribosomal complex. 相似文献

The ability of insulin and an insulinomimetic oligosaccharide (IOS) isolated from conditioned medium of Reuber hepatoma cells to regulate protein phosphorylation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and Fao hepatoma cells has been examined in extracts prepared from 32P-labeled cells and by immunoblotting of unlabeled extracts with an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. In 32P-labeled 3T3-L1 cells, both insulin and IOS stimulate the dephosphorylation of a 55K membrane-associated protein, yet only insulin stimulates the phosphorylation of the ribosomal S6 protein and a 22K heat-stable soluble protein. In 32P-labeled Fao cells, both insulin and IOS stimulate the phosphorylation of a 16K protein, but only insulin stimulates S6 phosphorylation. As judged by immunoblotting, IOS does not stimulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of the beta subunit of the insulin receptor and a 180K soluble protein in a manner similar to insulin. These data indicate that the insulinomimetic effects of IOS are selective for certain insulin-regulated pathways and that the effects of IOS are unlikely to be operating through stimulation of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. 相似文献

Kinetics of ribosomal protein S6 phosphorylation by HepG-2 cells in response to insulin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of insulin on the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 was studied in a human liver cell line (HepG-2), using [32P] inorganic phosphate. Increased rate of protein S6 phosphorylation was detected 8 min following the addition of insulin to serum starved cells. Maximum enhancement of phosphorylation was observed at 80 nM insulin. Minimum level of insulin required to produce measurable increase of S6 phosphorylation was 20 nM. Radioactivity of protein S6 increased most in the native subunit and polysome fractions. Significant increase in radioactivity of this protein was not observed in the monosome fraction during the first 30 min of insulin stimulation. Increase in the specific radioactivity of native 40S subunit was higher than that of polysomes. These results suggest that phosphorylation takes place in the subunit compartment and moves preferentially into the polysomes. 相似文献

1. The phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) stimulates fatty acid synthesis from glucose in isolated adipocytes with a half-maximal effect at 0.72 microM. In seven batches of cells, the maximal effects of TPA and insulin were 8.5 +/- 1.1-fold and 27.1 +/- 2.1-fold respectively. Insulin also stimulated fatty acid synthesis from acetate 8.9 +/- 0.5-fold (three experiments), but TPA did not significantly increase fatty acid synthesis from this precursor. 2. In contrast to insulin, TPA treatment of isolated adipocytes did not produce an activation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase which was detectable in crude cell extracts. 3. The total phosphate content of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, isolated from adipocytes in the presence of protein phosphatase inhibitors, was estimated by 32P-labelling experiments to be 2.6 +/- 0.1 (5), 3.4 +/- 0.2 (5), and 3.8 +/- 0.2 (3) mol/mol subunit for enzyme from control, insulin- and TPA-treated cells respectively. Insulin and TPA stimulated phosphorylation within the same two tryptic peptides. 4. Purified acetyl-CoA carboxylase is phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase C at serine residues which are recovered in three tryptic peptides, i.e. peptide T1, which appears to be identical with the peptide Ser-Ser(P)-Met-Ser-Gly-Leu-His-Leu-Val-Lys phosphorylated by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, and peptides Ta and Tb, which have the sequences Ile-Asp-Ser(P)-Gln-Arg and Lys-Ile-Asp-Ser(P)-Gln-Arg respectively, and which appear to be derived from a single site by alternative cleavages. None of these correspond to the peptides whose 32P-labelling increase in response to insulin or TPA. Peptides Ta/Tb are not significantly phosphorylated in isolated adipocytes, even after insulin or TPA treatment. Peptide T1 is phosphorylated in isolated adipocytes, but this phosphorylation is not altered by insulin or TPA. 5. These results show that TPA mimics the effect of insulin on phosphorylation, but not activation, of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, i.e. that these two events can be dissociated. In addition, phorbol ester stimulates phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in isolated adipocytes, but this is not catalyzed directly by protein kinase C, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase does not appear to be a physiological substrate for this kinase. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of eIF-4F by protein kinase C or multipotential S6 kinase stimulates protein synthesis at initiation 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4F, a multiprotein cap binding complex, has been shown to be phosphorylated in vivo in response to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and insulin (Morley, S.J., and Traugh, J.A. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 2401-2404; Morley, S.J., and Traugh, J.A. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 10611-10616). The effect of phosphorylation on the activity of purified eIF-4F, utilizing both protein kinase C and a multifunctional S6 kinase, previously identified as protease activated kinase II, has been examined; these protein kinases modify eIF-4F p25 and p220 and eIF-4F p220, respectively. Studies with an eIF-4F-dependent protein synthesis system showed that phosphorylation of eIF-4F with either protein kinase resulted in a 3-5-fold stimulation of translation relative to the nonphosphorylated control. Chemical cross-linking of eIF-4F to cap-labeled mRNA, showed that phosphorylation increased the interaction of both the p25 and p220 subunits of eIF-4F with the 5' end of mRNA. This effect was manifested by a stimulation of initiation complex formation as measured by an increase in the association of labeled mRNA with 40 S ribosomal subunits in the translation system. Thus, phosphorylation of eIF-4F enhances binding to mRNA, resulting in a stimulation of protein synthesis at initiation. 相似文献
