Regulation of gene expression during myeloid cell differentiation has been analyzed using clones of myeloid leukemic cells that differ in their competence to be induced to differentiate by the normal macrophage- and granulocyte-inducing protein MGI. Changes in the relative rate of synthesis for specific proteins were compared to changes in the relative amounts of corresponding translatable poly(A)+ mRNAs, assayed in the reticulocyte cell-free translation system, using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Of the 217 proteins which changed during MGI-induced differentiation of normally differentiating MGI+D+ leukemic cells, 136 could be identified as products of cell-free translation. Eighty-four percent of the 70 decreases in synthesis, most of which occurred early during differentiation, were not accompanied by a parallel decrease in the amount of translatable mRNA, but were accompanied by a parallel shift of the corresponding mRNAs from the polysomal to the monosomal and free mRNA fractions. These results indicate that most of the early decreases in the synthesis of proteins were translationally regulated. In contrast, 81% of the proteins which increased in synthesis and 71% of the proteins that were induced de novo were regulated at the level of mRNA production. Experiments with differentiation defective mutants have shown that they were blocked both at the level of mRNA production and mRNA translation. The data with these mutants have suggested that there were different subsets of translationally regulated proteins which were separately regulated. The translational blocks for several proteins in these mutant clones have also made it possible to identify additional translational sites of regulation for protein changes that were controlled at the level of mRNA production during normal differentiation. The results indicate that translational regulation may predominantly have a different function in cell differentiation than regulation by mRNA production, and that differentiation-defective mutants can be blocked at either level. 相似文献

Differential translational efficiency of the mRNAs isolated from derepressed and glucose repressed Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Carbon catabolite derepression induced changes in the pool of yeast mRNAs translatable in a protein-synthesizing reticulocyte system. Competition experiments with globin mRNA showed that the mRNA population obtained from derepressed cells possessed a higher translational efficiency than mRNA from repressed cells. The mRNAs that could account for the high translational efficiency of the derepressed mRNA were not detected in cells growing in glucose-rich medium. Analysis of protein synthesis in the presence of 7-methylguanosine 5'-phosphate indicated that the initiation factors recognizing the 5'-terminal structure of capped messengers interacted with lower affinity with the repressed than with some specific derepressed mRNAs. 相似文献

The effect of Cd on gene expression in suspension cultures of twoDatura innoxia cell lines with differing Cd tolerance was studied.In vivo labeling experiments using [3H] leucine showed that Cd induced the synthesis of a similar range of proteins in both cell lines at a concentration which will kill the sensitive but not the tolerant cells. Corresponding changes in levels of translatable mRNA were also observed. The induction of the synthesis of proteins by Cd was transient since Cd-tolerant cells growing continuously in 250 M CdCl2 contained a similar set ofin vitro translation products to cells growing in the absence of Cd. Although Cd had a similar effect on gene expression in both cell lines, Cd-tolerant cells possess two abundant mRNAs which are constitutively produced. These mRNAs encode proteins of low molecular weight (about 11 kDa) and are either absent or present at a low level in Cd-sensitive cells. The functions of these proteins are not known but they may be involved in the tolerance mechanism. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis ofin vitro translation products showed that many of the Cd-induced proteins are also induced by heat shock. A 42°C heat shock resulted in agreater range and more intense induction of translatable mRNAs than 4 h exposure to 250 M CdCl2. However a subset of mRNAs were induced specifically by Cd while other mRNAs were heat shock-specific. There was no difference in the ability of the two cell lines to tolerate heat shock. This was also reflected by the same pattern of major proteins induced by heat shock in the two cell lines. 相似文献

The pattern of proteins synthesized at different stages of differentiation of the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum was studied by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Of the approximately 400 proteins detected during growth and/or development, synthesis of most continued throughout differentiation. Approximately 100 proteins show changes in their relative rates of synthesis. During the transition from growth to interphase, the major change observed is reduction in the relative rate of synthesis of about 8 proteins. Few further changes are noticeable until the stage of late cell aggregation, when production of about 40 new proteins begins and synthesis of about 10 is reduced considerably. Thereafter, there are few changes in the pattern of protein synthesis. Major changes in the relative rates of synthesis of a number of proteins are found during culmination, but few culmination-specific proteins are observed. In an attempt to understand the molecular basis for these changes, mRNA was isolated from different stages of differentiation and translated in an improved wheat germ cell-free system; the products were resolved on two-dimensional gels. The ratio of total translatable mRNA to total cellular RNA is constant throughout growth and differentiation. Messenger RNAs for many, but not all, developmentally regulated proteins can be identified by translation in cell-free systems. Actin is the major protein synthesized by vegetative cells and by early differentiating cells. The threefold increase in the relative rate of synthesis of actin during the first 2 hr of differentiation and the decrease which occurs thereafter can be accounted for by parallel changes in the amount of translatable actin mRNA. Most of the changes in the pattern of protein synthesis which occur during the late aggregation and culmination stages can also be accounted for by parallel increases or decreases in the amounts of translatable mRNAs encoding these proteins. It is concluded that mRNAs do not appear in a translatable form before synthesis of the homologous protein begins, and that regulation of protein synthesis during development is primarily at the levels of production or destruction of mRNA. 相似文献

We have tested the hypothesis that differentiation and growth arrest of Y-79 human retinoblastoma cells in culture is associated with a modification of gene expression. We first examined proteins translated from mRNAs isolated from Y-79 cells growing in suspension and in attachment cultures in serum-containing medium and found them to be markedly different. This suggests that membrane-substrate interactions are of major consequence in the biochemical differentiation of these cells. Secondly, we examined the patterns of proteins translated from attached cells which had been induced to morphologically differentiate into neuronal-like and glial-like cells by serum-withdrawal and dibutyryl cAMP treatment respectively. The in vitro translatable proteins of mRNAs isolated from these cultures were found to be markedly different from those of the suspension and attachment cultures. Thirdly, we found that treatment of cells growing in attachment culture in serum-containing medium supplemented with 8-bromo cAMP, butyrate and retinoic acid as well as dibutyryl cAMP resulted in discreet alterations in proteins translated in vitro from extracted mRNAs. Although all these substances inhibit the growth of Y-79 cells, only dibutyryl cAMP and butyrate result in morphological differentiation of cells. Our results suggest that (1) attachment and morphological differentiation of Y-79 cells are both related to specific alterations in gene expression and (2) differentiation and inhibition of cell growth by various agents can be correlated with changes in translatable mRNA species although all agents do not act in the same mode. 相似文献

Changes in translatable mRNAs during the larval-pupal transformation of the epidermis of the tobacco hornworm 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
L M Riddiford 《Developmental biology》1982,92(2):330-342
At the initiation of metamorphosis when exposed to ecdysteroid in the absence of juvenile hormone (JH), the lepidopteran epidermis changes its commitment from one for larval differentiation to one for pupal differentiation. Changes in mRNA populations during this change both in vivo and in vitro were followed by a one-dimensional SDS-gel electrophoretic analysis of translation products made in a mRNA-dependent rabbit reticulocyte lysate system. The larval epidermal cell was found to lose its translatable mRNAs for larval cuticular proteins and the larval-specific pigment insecticyanin during the change in commitment; these never reappeared. For Class I cuticular proteins and for insecticyanin, this loss occurred during the exposure to ecdysteroid, each with a differing time course. By contrast, Class II cuticular mRNAs first increased during this time, then also disappeared by the time the cells were pupally committed. In vitro these mRNAs appeared in only trace amounts in response to 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE). The pupally committed cell (late in the wandering stage) contained mRNAs for three low-molecular-weight proteins which were precipitable with the pupal cuticular antiserum. The remainder of the pupal cuticular mRNAs were not translatable until the third day after wandering, a time when pupal cuticle is being deposited in response to a molting surge of ecdysteroid. The pupally committed cell also had at least one new noncuticular mRNA which coded for a 34K protein and which was absent from both larval and pupal epidermal cells making cuticle. Since its appearance in response to 20-HE in vitro is repressed by JH, it is called a pupal commitment-specific protein. Thus, during the change of commitment 20-HE inactivates larval-specific genes irreversibly in a sequential cascade of events. The activation of most pupal-specific genes then requires a subsequent exposure to more ecdysteroid. 相似文献

Translational efficiency of a minor group of mRNAs is regulated by serum levels in 3T6 fibroblasts. Included within this group is the poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) mRNA. We analyzed the distribution of PABP mRNA in polysome profiles and found a large percentage of this mRNA to be translationally repressed in both actively growing (approximately 60%) and resting cells (approximately 70%). Elevated serum levels induced a distinct bimodal distribution of this mRNA between actively translated and repressed fractions. Similarly, treatment of cells with low doses of cycloheximide also generated a partial shift of repressed PABP mRNA into the actively translated fraction. In an attempt to characterize the factors which regulate PABP mRNA translation we have identified the proteins which bind to this mRNA in vitro. Sequences within the 5' untranslated region were found to be sufficient for binding of all proteins to this mRNA. We suggest that this region and the proteins associated with it may be essential for translation control of PABP mRNA. 相似文献

Human translation elongation factor 1A (EF1A) is a member of a large class of mRNAs, including ribosomal proteins and other translation elongation factors, which are coordinately translationally regulated under various conditions. Each of these mRNAs contains a terminal oligopyrimidine tract (TOP) that is required for translational control. A human growth hormone (hGH) expression construct containing the promoter region and 5' untranslated region (UTR) of EF1A linked to the hGH coding region (EF1A/hGH) was translationally repressed following rapamycin treatment in similar fashion to endogenous EF1A in human B lymphocytes. Mutation of two nucleotides in the TOP motif abolished the translational regulation. Gel mobility shift assays showed that both La protein from human B lymphocyte cytoplasmic extracts as well as purified recombinant La protein specifically bind to an in vitro-synthesized RNA containing the 5' UTR of EF1A mRNA. Moreover, extracts prepared from rapamycin-treated cells showed increased binding activity to the EF1A 5' UTR RNA, which correlates with TOP mRNA translational repression. In an in vitro translation system, recombinant La dramatically decreased the expression of EF1A/hGH construct mRNA, but not mRNAs lacking an intact TOP element. These results indicate that TOP mRNA translation may be modulated through La binding to the TOP element. 相似文献

Changes Related to Salt Tolerance in Thylakoid Membranes of Photoautotrophically Cultured Green Tobacco Cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A line of cultured tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum cv. SamsunNN) was established that was able to grow photoautotrophicallyin a medium that contained 0.2 M NaCl or in a medium withoutNaCl. Thylakoid membranes of the NaCl-adapted cells had higheroxygen-evolving activities, on the basis of chlorophyll, thanthose of unadapted cells. Furthermore, the oxygen-evolving activitiesof thylakoid membranes from NaCl-adapted cells were more tolerantto high concentrations of NaCl than those from unadapted cells. Glycinebetaine at 1 M protected the oxygen-evolving activityof thylakoid membranes from unadapted cells but not that fromadapted cells. Examination of the dissociation of 23-kDa and33-kDa polypeptides from the water-splitting complex of photosystemII at high concentrations of NaCl indicated that the affinitywith which the 23-kDa polypeptide was bound to thylakoid membranesof salt-adapted cells had been altered.

Expression of acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit mRNA during differentiation of the BC3H1 muscle cell line 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
E N Olson L Glaser J P Merlie J Lindstrom 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1984,259(5):3330-3336
The accumulation of translatable acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit mRNA was examined in the BC3H1 muscle cell line in response to serum and cell growth. Relative amounts of alpha-subunit mRNA were quantitated during differentiation by cell-free translation and immunoprecipitation with an alpha-subunit-specific monoclonal antibody. Logarithmically growing cells do not possess cell surface acetylcholine receptors; however, a significant amount of alpha-subunit mRNA is detectable in cells under these conditions. Furthermore, alpha-subunit is synthesized in growing undifferentiated cells at a rate similar to that of differentiated cultures. Following growth arrest of BC3H1 cells, surface receptors are induced to levels greater than 100-fold above that of growing cells. The relative level of translatable alpha-subunit mRNA in differentiated cells, however, is only approximately 4-fold greater than in growing cultures. Induction of alpha-subunit mRNA appears to be reversible since reinitiation of growth in quiescent differentiated BC3H1 cells results in a reduction in relative abundance of this mRNA species to levels comparable to that of undifferentiated cells and the concomitant loss of surface receptors. These results indicate that receptor expression during differentiation is regulated both post-translationally and at the level of receptor subunit mRNA accumulation. 相似文献
