Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4B (eIF4B) binds directly to the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV). Mutations in all three subdomains of the IRES stem-loop 4 reduce binding of eIF4B and translation efficiency in parallel, indicating that eIF4B is functionally involved in FMDV translation initiation. In reticulocyte lysate devoid of polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTB), eIF4B still bound well to the wild-type IRES, even after removal of the major PTB-binding site. In conclusion, the interaction of eIF4B with the FMDV IRES is essential for IRES function but independent of PTB.  相似文献

AU-rich element binding factor 1 (AUF1) has a role in the replication cycles of different viruses. Here we demonstrate that AUF1 binds the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of enterovirus 71 (EV71) and negatively regulates IRES-dependent translation. During EV71 infection, AUF1 accumulates in the cytoplasm where viral replication occurs, whereas AUF1 localizes predominantly in the nucleus in mock-infected cells. AUF1 knockdown in infected cells increases IRES activity and synthesis of viral proteins. Taken together, the results suggest that AUF1 interacts with the EV71 IRES to negatively regulate viral translation and replication.  相似文献

肠道病毒71型的RT-PCR诊断及基因特征   总被引:63,自引:1,他引:62  
2002~2003年从上海市和重庆市手足口病患儿的疱液标本中分离到10株病毒,其中上海9株,重庆1株.利用两对分别针对EV71和Cox.A16病毒VP1区的特异性引物,用RT-PCR方法对病毒进行初步鉴别.根据PCR所用引物及PCR扩增出的产物片段大小不同,可初步判定出EV71和Cox.A16病毒的血清型别.RT-PCR结果提示,上海分离到的9株病毒中,有2株为EV71,其余7株病毒为Cox.A16;重庆分离到的1株病毒为EV71.10株病毒的RT-PCR产物经序列测定和分析证实,PCR定型结果正确,说明PCR法具有很高的特异性,可作为EV71初步鉴定的首选方法.对所分离的3株EV71病毒进行VP1区编码基因全序列的测定和遗传学分析,通过同源性比较和构建系统发生树发现,此3株EV71病毒和中国大陆已发表的7株EV71病毒(SHZH03、SHZH98、SH-F1、SH-F2、SH-H25、SH-H26和CHN-87)全部属于C基因型,与该型代表株比较,同源性为89.3%~94.6%;与A、B基因型代表株比较,同源性为81.3%~84.0%,差异较大.在C基因型中,此3株EV71病毒和中国大陆先前分离的6株病毒(SHZH03、SHZH98、SH-F1、SH-F2、SH-H25、SH-H26)的同源性较高,在94.5%~100%范围内.在系统发生树上,这9株病毒形成一个较独立的分支.与CHN-87株的同源性在92.1%~93.6%之间.与已知的C1、C2、C3亚型代表株比较,同源性在89.3%~92.9%,差异≥7%,因此认为可将这9株病毒划分为C4亚型.上海、重庆和深圳的EV71病毒有较高的同源性,提示该病毒EV71-CA亚型在中国大陆1998~2003年间有较广泛的传播.建立中国流行的EV71病毒毒株库和基因库,对诊断、预防和控制EV71在中国的爆发有重要意义,对加强EV71的实验室诊断、病毒学监测和病毒基因型和亚型的标准命名和分子流行病学研究有重要帮助.  相似文献

肠道病毒71型(EV71)的非结构蛋白2C(P2C)在病毒复制周期中起着重要的作用,制备P2C的特异性抗体,对研究P2C的生物学功能以及EV71与宿主相互作用的具体机制有非常重要的意义。实验将2C基因克隆到原核表达载体p ET-28a(+)上,在大肠埃希菌BL21(DE3)中表达出重组蛋白r P2C,进一步优化原核表达条件,在温度为30℃,诱导剂IPTG浓度为1 mmol/L时,蛋白表达量最高,且主要以包涵体形式存在。直接将获得的r P2C通过SDS-PAGE分离后免疫新西兰兔,制备EV71病毒P2C的兔多克隆抗体。通过Western blot检测,该抗体在110 000稀释比例下仍能很好地识别原核表达的r P2C。同时该抗体也能很好地检测到EV71感染RD细胞中的P2C。因此,实验制备出的抗P2C抗体特异性强、效价高,为后续P2C功能的研究以及EV71病毒检测提供了良好的材料。  相似文献

EV71 (enterovirus 71) RNA contains an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) that directs cap-independent initiation of translation. IRES-dependent translation requires the host’s translation initiation factors and IRES-associated trans-acting factors (ITAFs). We reported recently that mRNA decay factor AUF1 is a negative-acting ITAF that binds IRES stem-loop II. We also reported that the small RNA-processing enzyme Dicer produces at least four small RNAs (vsRNAs) from the EV71 IRES. One of these, vsRNA1, derived from IRES stem-loop II, reduces IRES activity and virus replication. Since its mechanism of action is unknown, we hypothesized that it might control association of ITAFs with the IRES. Here, we identified the mRNA stability factor HuR and the RISC subunit Argonaute 2 (Ago2) as two ITAFs that bind stem-loop II. In contrast to AUF1, HuR and Ago2 promote EV71 IRES activity and virus replication. In vitro RNA-binding assays revealed that vsRNA1 can alter association of Ago2, HuR, and AUF1 with stem-loop II. This presents a possible mechanism by which vsRNA1 could control viral translation and replication.  相似文献

Overexpression and activation of the c-Src protein have been linked to the development of a wide variety of cancers. The molecular mechanism(s) of c-Src overexpression in cancer cells is not clear. We report here an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) in the c-Src mRNA that is constituted by both 5′-noncoding and -coding regions. The inhibition of cap-dependent translation by m7GDP in the cell-free translation system or induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress in hepatoma-derived cells resulted in stimulation of the c-Src IRES activities. Sucrose density gradient analyses revealed formation of a stable binary complex between the c-Src IRES and purified HeLa 40 S ribosomal subunit in the absence of initiation factors. We further demonstrate eIF2-independent assembly of 80 S initiation complex on the c-Src IRES. These features of the c-Src IRES appear to be reminiscent of that of hepatitis C virus-like IRESs and translation initiation in prokaryotes. Transfection studies and genetic analysis revealed that the c-Src IRES permitted initiation at the authentic AUG351, which is also used for conventional translation initiation of the c-Src mRNA. Our studies unveiled a novel regulatory mechanism of c-Src synthesis mediated by an IRES element, which exhibits enhanced activity during cellular stress and is likely to cause c-Src overexpression during oncogenesis and metastasis.  相似文献

Enterovirus A71(EV-A71) is one of the etiological pathogens leading to hand, foot, and mouth disease(HFMD), which can cause severe neurological complications. The neuropathogenesis of EV-A71 infection is not well understood. The mislocalization and aggregation of TAR DNA-binding protein 43(TDP-43) is the pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS). However, whether TDP-43 was impacted by EV-A71 infection is unknown. This study demonstrated that TDP-43 was cleaved during EV-A71 infection. The cleavage of TDP-43 requires EV-A71 replication rather than the activated caspases due to viral infection. TDP-43 is cleaved by viral protease 3 C between the residues 331 Q and332 S, while mutated TDP-43(Q331 A) was not cleaved. In addition, mutated 3 C which lacks the protease activity failed to induce TDP-43 cleavage. We also found that TDP-43 was translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and the mislocalization of TDP-43 was induced by viral protease 2 A rather than 3 C. Taken together, we demonstrated that TDP-43 was cleaved by viral protease and translocated to the cytoplasm during EV-A71 infection, implicating the possible involvement of TDP-43 in the pathogenesis of EV-A71 infection.  相似文献

Connexin43 (Cx43) is the most abundant gap junction protein in higher vertebrate organisms and has been shown to be involved in junctional and non-junctional functions. In addition to the expression of full-length Cx43, endogenously produced carboxyl-terminal segments of Cx43 have been described and have been suggested to be involved in manifold biological functions, such as hypoxic preconditioning and neuronal migration. Molecular aspects, however, behind the separate generation of carboxyl-terminal segments of Cx43 have remained elusive. Here we report on a mechanism that may play a key role in the separate production of these domains. First, stringent evidence derived from siRNA treatment and specific knockouts revealed significant loss of the low molecular weight fragments of Cx43. By applying a dicistronic vector strategy on transfected cell lines, we were able to identify putative IRES activity (nucleotides 442–637) in the coding region of Cx43, which resides upstream from the nucleotide sequence encoding the carboxyl terminus (nucleotides 637–1149). Functional responsiveness of the endogenous expression of Cx43 fragments to hypoxic/ischemic treatment was evaluated in in vitro and in vivo models, which led to a significant increase of the fastest migrating form (20 kDa) under conditions of metabolic deprivation. By nano-MS spectrometry, we achieved stringent evidence of the identity of the 20-kDa segment as part of the carboxyl-terminal domain of full-length Cx43. Our data prove the existence of endogenously expressed carboxyl-terminal domains, which may serve as valuable tools for further translational application in ischemic disorders.  相似文献

真核生物除了传统的帽依赖型翻译机制外,还存在内部核糖体进入位点(internal ribosome entry site, IRES)介导的翻译机制。雌激素受体2(estrogen receptor 2, ESR2)是雌激素受体家族成员之一,其编码的蛋白质在许多肿瘤中发挥重要的作用。ESR2蛋白的异常表达会导致众多肿瘤的发生,但其蛋白质翻译水平的调控机制至今仍不清楚。研究发现,在药物刺激的条件下,乳腺癌细胞MCF7/WT中ESR2蛋白的表达提高,但是其转录水平基本未见发生改变。猜测ESR2 mRNA 5′非翻译区(5′ untranslated region, 5′ UTR)具有IRES活性。为了验证ESR2 mRNA 5′ UTR是否具有IRES元件,将ESR2 mRNA 5′ UTR插入到双顺反子报告基因载体(pRF)中,构建pRL-ESR2-FL重组质粒载体,将其瞬时转染到HEK293细胞。结果发现,ESR2 mRNA 5′ UTR有假定的IRES活性。并且通过3个排除实验验证了ESR2 IRES活性与其5′ UTR中的内部潜在启动子(P<0.0001)、内部剪切位点以及核糖体通读无关。进一步对其序列进行截短研究发现,ESR2 IRES活性发挥的关键区域是3′端的439~468 nt,且ESR2 IRES最大活性的发挥依赖于5′ UTR序列的完整性。并且发现,ESR2 IRES活性的发挥不但需要特定的一级核酸序列,还要有稳定的二级茎环结构。此研究有望为ESR2蛋白调控的相关疾病提供新的药物治疗靶点。  相似文献

A member of the sirtuin family of NAD+-dependent deacetylases, SIRT3, is located in mammalian mitochondria and is important for regulation of mitochondrial metabolism, cell survival, and longevity. In this study, MRPL10 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein L10) was identified as the major acetylated protein in the mitochondrial ribosome. Ribosome-associated SIRT3 was found to be responsible for deacetylation of MRPL10 in an NAD+-dependent manner. We mapped the acetylated Lys residues by tandem mass spectrometry and determined the role of these residues in acetylation of MRPL10 by site-directed mutagenesis. Furthermore, we observed that the increased acetylation of MRPL10 led to an increase in translational activity of mitochondrial ribosomes in Sirt3−/− mice. In a similar manner, ectopic expression and knockdown of SIRT3 in C2C12 cells resulted in the suppression and enhancement of mitochondrial protein synthesis, respectively. Our findings constitute the first evidence for the regulation of mitochondrial protein synthesis by the reversible acetylation of the mitochondrial ribosome and characterize MRPL10 as a novel substrate of the NAD+-dependent deacetylase, SIRT3.  相似文献

蛋白质翻译起始通常有两种机制,一是依赖帽结构的翻译,另一种是依赖5′非翻译区的内部核糖体进入位点(IRES).在后一种方式中,在某些IRES反式作用因子,如La蛋白、多聚嘧啶串结合蛋白1等的参与下,直接招募核糖体小亚基到mRNA的翻译起始位点,启始翻译.研究发现,参与细胞生长、分化、细胞周期进程、凋亡和压力调控的相关蛋白中通常含有IRES元件.基于功能,我们提出假说:转录激活因子1(ATF1)的5′-UTR可能具有IRES活性.为验证假说,首先构建了含全长ATF1 5′-UTR的双荧光素酶报告质粒|质粒转染结合报告酶活性分析显示,ATF1 5′-UTR在Bel7402、HCT-8和HEK293细胞中表现出不同的IRES活性|而此IRES活性与5′-UTR中的隐藏启动子无关.同时还发现,ATF1 5′-UTR在NIH3T3细胞中却没有IRES活性.与此结果相一致,Western印迹检测ATF1在这几种细胞系中的表达.结果显示,Bel7402、HCT 8和HEK293中ATF1蛋白质表达水平较高,而在NIH3T3中却极低. ATF1 5′-UTR的系列5′-删除突变及报告酶分析证明,ATF1 5′-UTR的完整性对其IRES活性大小发挥重要作用|其中5′端的204 bp序列对其IRES活性贡献较大. RNA-蛋白免疫共沉淀实验揭示,ATF1 5′-UTR可与La和PTBP1蛋白结合|抑制La和PTBP1蛋白质的表达,并可减低HEK293细胞中ATF1蛋白质表达水平.这些结果提示,La和PTBP1蛋白(两种ITAFs)为ATF1 5′-UTR发挥IRES活性所必需.总之,上述结果证明,ATF1 5′-UTR具有IRES活性,其活性发挥依赖与La和PTBP1蛋白的结合.上述发现为进一步研究La和PTBP1表达及亚细胞定位对ATF1 IRES调控机制的影响奠定了基础.  相似文献

Two novel ent-atisane type diterpenoids possessing the extra unusal 2-oxopropyl moiety (1 and 2) and four known analogues have been isolated from the roots of Euphorbia ebracteolata. The structures and absolute configurations of these compounds were determined by extensive spectroscopic data analysis, including 2D NMR, single-crystal X-ray crystallography, 13C NMR calculation, and electronic circular dichroism spectra calculation. Compounds 1 and 2 are the first examples of natural products with ent-atisane type diterpenoids possessing 2-oxopropyl skeleton. Compounds 2, 3, 5, and 6 show antiviral activities against human rhinovirus 3, with IC50 values of 25.27–90.35 μM. Compounds 5 and 6 showed moderate antiviral activities against EV71 at a concentration of 100 μM.  相似文献

Viruses have evolved a variety of mechanisms to usurp the host cell translation machinery to enable translation of the viral genome in the presence of high levels of cellular mRNAs. Noroviruses, a major cause of gastroenteritis in man, have evolved a mechanism that relies on the interaction of translation initiation factors with the virus-encoded VPg protein covalently linked to the 5′ end of the viral RNA. To further characterize this novel mechanism of translation initiation, we have used proteomics to identify the components of the norovirus translation initiation factor complex. This approach revealed that VPg binds directly to the eIF4F complex, with a high affinity interaction occurring between VPg and eIF4G. Mutational analyses indicated that the C-terminal region of VPg is important for the VPg-eIF4G interaction; viruses with mutations that alter or disrupt this interaction are debilitated or non-viable. Our results shed new light on the unusual mechanisms of protein-directed translation initiation.  相似文献
