Vertebrate TOP mRNAs contain an oligopyrimidine tract at their 5' termini (5'TOP) and encode components of the translational machinery. Previously it has been shown that they are subject to selective translational repression upon growth arrest and that their translational behavior correlates with the activity of S6K1. We now show that the translation of TOP mRNAs is rapidly repressed by amino acid withdrawal and that this nutritional control depends strictly on the integrity of the 5'TOP motif. However, neither phosphorylation of ribosomal protein (rp) S6 nor activation of S6K1 per se is sufficient to relieve the translational repression of TOP mRNAs in amino acid-starved cells. Likewise, inhibition of S6K1 activity and rpS6 phosphorylation by overexpression of dominant-negative S6K1 mutants failed to suppress the translational activation of TOP mRNAs in amino acid-refed cells. Furthermore, TOP mRNAs were translationally regulated by amino acid sufficiency in embryonic stem cells lacking both alleles of the S6K1 gene. Inhibition of mTOR by rapamycin led to fast and complete repression of S6K1, as judged by rpS6 phosphorylation, but to only partial and delayed repression of translational activation of TOP mRNAs. In contrast, interference in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)-mediated pathway by chemical or genetic manipulations blocked rapidly and completely the translational activation of TOP mRNAs. It appears, therefore, that translational regulation of TOP mRNAs, at least by amino acids, (i) is fully dependent on PI3-kinase, (ii) is partially sensitive to rapamycin, and (iii) requires neither S6K1 activity nor rpS6 phosphorylation. 相似文献

When P1798 murine lymphosarcoma cells are exposed to 10(-7) M dexamethasone, there is a dramatic inhibition of rRNA synthesis, which is completely reversible when the hormone is withdrawn. In the present experiments we examined whether dexamethasone treatment causes any alteration in the accumulation or utilization of mRNAs that encode ribosomal proteins (rp mRNAs). No effect on the accumulation of six different rp mRNAs was detected. However, the translation of five of six rp mRNAs was selectively inhibited in the presence of the hormone, as judged by a substantial decrease in ribosomal loading. Normal translation of rp mRNA was resumed within a few hours after hormone withdrawal. In untreated or fully recovered cells, the distribution of rp mRNAs between polyribosomes and free ribonucleoprotein is distinctly bimodal, suggesting that rp mRNAs are subject to a particular form of translational control in which they are either translationally inactive or fully loaded with ribosomes. A possible relationship between this mode of translational control and the selective suppression of rp mRNA translation by glucocorticoids is discussed. 相似文献

TOP mRNAs (contain a 5' terminal oligopyrimidine tract) are differentially translated in rapamycin-treated human B lymphocytes. Following rapamycin treatment, ribosomal protein (rp) and translation elongation factor TOP mRNAs were translationally repressed, whereas hnRNP A1 TOP mRNA was not. Poly(A)-binding protein (Pabp1) TOP mRNA was translationally repressed under all conditions tested. To investigate the mechanism involved, chimeric mRNAs containing the hnRNP A1 5' untranslated region (UTR) linked to the human growth hormone (hGH) reporter were analyzed. Wild-type hnRNP A1 construct mRNA behaved similarly to endogenous hnRNP A1, whereas a single mutation (guanosine to cytidine) within the TOP element resulted in increased translational regulation. These results suggest that TOP mRNA translation can be modulated and that all TOP mRNAs are not translated with equal efficiency. 相似文献

Synthesis of new ribosomes is an energy costly and thus highly regulated process. Ribosomal protein synthesis is controlled by regulating translation of the corresponding ribosomal protein (rp)mRNAs. In mammalian cells a 5′-terminal oligopyrimidine tract (TOP) is a conserved feature of these mRNAs that has been demonstrated to be essential for their translational regulation. Translation of TOP mRNAs has been proposed to be regulated by phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6, which is a common effect of mitogenic stimulation of cells. However, as demonstrated here, S6 phosphorylation is not detectable in murine erythroleukemia (MEL) or other hematopoietic cells. The absence of S6 phosphorylation appears to be due to the action of a phosphatase that acts downstream of S6 kinase, presumably on S6 itself. Despite the absence of changes in S6 phosphorylation, translation of TOP mRNAs is repressed during differentiation of MEL cells. These data demonstrate the existence of a mechanism for regulating S6 phosphorylation that is distinct from kinase activation, as well as the existence of mechanisms for regulating translation of TOP mRNAs that are independent of S6 phosphorylation. 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

Vertebrate TOP mRNAs contain a 5' terminal oligopyrimidine tract (5' TOP), which is subject to selective translational repression in non-growing cells or in cell-free translation systems. In the present study, we monitored in vitro the effect of increasing amounts of a 16 nucleotides long oligoribonucleotide representing the 5' terminus of mouse ribosomal protein S16 mRNA on the translation of TOP and non-TOP mRNAs. Our results demonstrate that the wild-type sequence (but not its mutant counterparts) derepresses the translation of mRNAs containing 5' TOP motifs, but failed to stimulate the translation of non-TOP mRNAs, even if the latter differed only by a single nucleotide from their 5' TOP-containing counterparts. Similar results have been obtained with both wheat germ extract and rabbit reticulocyte lysate. It appears, therefore, that translational repression of TOP mRNAs is achieved in vitro by the accumulation of a titratable repressor rather than by the loss of an activator and that this repressor recognizes multiple TOP mRNAs with a diverse set of 5' TOP motifs. 相似文献

The synthesis of many mammalian proteins associated with the translational apparatus is selectively regulated by mitogenic and nutritional stimuli, at the translational level. The apparent advantages of the regulation of gene expression at the translational level are the speed and the readily reversible nature of the response to altering physiological conditions. These two features enable cells to rapidly repress the biosynthesis of the translational machinery upon shortage of amino acids or growth arrest, thus rapidly blocking unnecessary energy wastage. Likewise, when amino acids are replenished or mitogenic stimulation is applied, then cells can rapidly respond in resuming the costly biosynthesis of the translational apparatus. A structural hallmark, common to mRNAs encoding many components of the translational machinery, is the presence of a 5' terminal oligopyrimidine tract (5'TOP), referred to as TOP mRNAs. This structural motif comprises the core of the translational cis-regulatory element of these mRNAs. The present review focuses on the mechanism underlying the translational control of TOP mRNAs upon growth and nutritional stimuli. A special emphasis is put on the pivotal role played by ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K) in this mode of regulation, and the upstream regulatory pathways, which might be engaged in transducing external signals into activation of S6K. Finally, the possible involvement of pyrimidine-binding proteins in the translational control of TOP mRNAs is discussed. 相似文献

The human gene RPMS12 encodes a protein similar to bacterial ribosomal protein S12 and is proposed to represent the human mitochondrial orthologue. RPMS12 reporter gene expression in cultured human cells supports the idea that the gene product is mitochondrial and is localized to the inner membrane. Human cells contain at least four structurally distinct RPMS12 mRNAs that differ in their 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) as a result of alternate splicing and of 5' end heterogeneity. All of them encode the same polypeptide. The full 5'-UTR contains two types of sequence element implicated elsewhere in translational regulation as follows: a short upstream open reading frame and an oligopyrimidine tract similar to that found at the 5' end of mRNAs encoding other growth-regulated proteins, including those of cytosolic ribosomes. The fully spliced (short) mRNA is the predominant form in all cell types studied and is translationally down-regulated in cultured cells in response to serum starvation, even though it lacks both of the putative translational regulatory elements. By contrast, other splice variants containing one or both of these elements are not translationally regulated by growth status but are translated poorly in both growing and non-growing cells. Reporter analysis identified a 26-nucleotide tract of the 5'-UTR of the short mRNA that is essential for translational down-regulation in growth-inhibited cells. Such experiments also confirmed that the 5'-UTR of the longer mRNA variants contains negative regulatory elements for translation. Tissue representation of RPMS12 mRNA is highly variable, following a typical mitochondrial pattern, but the relative levels of the different splice variants are similar in different tissues. These findings indicate a complex, multilevel regulation of RPMS12 gene expression in response to signals mediating growth, tissue specialization, and probably metabolic needs. 相似文献

TOP mRNAs are translationally controlled by mitogenic, growth, and nutritional stimuli through a 5'-terminal oligopyrimidine tract. Here we show that LiCl can alleviate the translational repression of these mRNAs when progression through the cell cycle is blocked at G(0), G(1)/S, or G(2)/M phases in different cell lines and by various physiological and chemical means. This derepressive effect of LiCl does not involve resumption of cell division. Unlike its efficient derepressive effect in mitotically arrested cells, LiCl alleviates inefficiently the repression of TOP mRNAs in amino acid-deprived cells and has no effect in lymphoblastoids whose TOP mRNAs are constitutively repressed even when they are proliferating. LiCl is widely used as a relatively selective inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase-3. However, inhibition per se of this enzyme by more specific drugs failed to derepress the translation of TOP mRNAs, implying that relief of the translational repression of TOP mRNAs by LiCl is carried out in a glycogen synthase kinase-3-independent manner. Moreover, this effect is apparent, at least in some cell lines, in the absence of S6-kinase 1 activation and ribosomal protein S6 phosphorylation, thus further supporting the notion that translational control of TOP mRNAs does not rely on either of these variables. 相似文献

Ferredoxin-1 (Fed-1) mRNA contains an internal light response element (iLRE) that destabilizes mRNA when light-grown plants are placed in darkness. mRNAs containing this element dissociate from polyribosomes in the leaves of transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants transferred to the dark for 2 d. Here, we report in vivo labeling experiments with a chloramphenicol acetyl transferase mRNA fused to the Fed-1 iLRE. Our data indicate that the Fed-1 iLRE mediates a rapid decline in translational efficiency and that iLRE-containing mRNAs dissociate from polyribosomes within 20 min after plants are transferred to darkness. Both events occur before the decline in mRNA abundance, and polyribosome association is rapidly reversible if plants are re-illuminated. These observations support a model in which Fed-1 mRNA in illuminated leaves is stabilized by its association with polyribosomes, and/or by translation. In darkness a large portion of the mRNA dissociates from polyribosomes and is subsequently degraded. We also show that a significant portion of total tobacco leaf mRNA is shifted from polyribosomal to non-polyribosomal fractions after 20 min in the dark, indicating that translation of other mRNAs is also rapidly down-regulated in response to darkness. This class includes some, but not all, cytoplasmic mRNAs encoding proteins involved in photosynthesis. 相似文献

Translation of terminal oligopyrimidine tract (TOP) mRNAs, which encode multiple components of the protein synthesis machinery, is known to be controlled by mitogenic stimuli. We now show that the ability of cells to progress through the cell cycle is not a prerequisite for this mode of regulation. TOP mRNAs can be translationally activated when PC12 or embryonic stem (ES) cells are induced to grow (increase their size) by nerve growth factor and retinoic acid, respectively, while remaining mitotically arrested. However, both growth and mitogenic signals converge via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)-mediated pathway and are transduced to efficiently translate TOP mRNAs. Translational activation of TOP mRNAs can be abolished by LY294002, a PI3-kinase inhibitor, or by overexpression of PTEN as well as by dominant-negative mutants of PI3-kinase or its effectors, PDK1 and protein kinase Balpha (PKBalpha). Likewise, overexpression of constitutively active PI3-kinase or PKBalpha can relieve the translational repression of TOP mRNAs in quiescent cells. Both mitogenic and growth signals lead to phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6), which precedes the translational activation of TOP mRNAs. Nevertheless, neither rpS6 phosphorylation nor its kinase, S6K1, is essential for the translational response of these mRNAs. Thus, TOP mRNAs can be translationally activated by growth or mitogenic stimuli of ES cells, whose rpS6 is constitutively unphosphorylated due to the disruption of both alleles of S6K1. Similarly, complete inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and its effector S6K by rapamycin in various cell lines has only a mild repressive effect on the translation of TOP mRNAs. It therefore appears that translation of TOP mRNAs is primarily regulated by growth and mitogenic cues through the PI3-kinase pathway, with a minor role, if any, for the mTOR pathway. 相似文献

Development of structural organization of protein-synthesizing machinery from prokaryotes to eukaryotes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Though the mechanisms of protein biosynthesis are similar in the cells of prokaryotes and eukaryotes, the eukaryotic translational machinery in the cell is arranged more intricately. One of the most striking characteristic features of the eukaryotic translational machinery is that the eukaryotic proteins involved in the translational process, such as initiation factors, elongation factors and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, in contrast to their prokaryotic analogs, possess a non-specific affinity for RNA. Due to the RNA-binding ability, these eukaryotic proteins can be compartmentalized on polyribosomes. In addition to the proteins of the translational apparatus, several other eukaryotic RNA-binding proteins can be also compartmentalized on polyribosomes; these proteins include glycolytic enzymes, steroid hormone receptors and intermediate filament proteins. Thus, the eukaryotic polyribosome is an element of the cytoplasmic labile structure on which various proteins can be compartmentalized and, consequently, different biochemical pathways can be integrated. 相似文献

The analysis of translational efficiencies of specific mRNAs requires a determination of the polyribosome size. The appropriate value to use in such calculations is the number-average size. A method is described for accurately measuring the number-average size of total and of specific protein synthesizing polyribosomes using isokinetic sucrose density gradients and 125I-labeled antibodies. By this method, we demonstrated that albumin synthesizing polyribosomes from a serum albumin secreting mouse hepatoma cell line exist over a broad range from trimers to 20-mers (mean 6-10). The specificity of antibody interaction with polyribosomes was demonstrated using cells not synthesizing mouse serum albumin, and by demonstrating that 125I-anti ovalbumin does not bind to mouse hepatoma polyribosomes. Treatment of the mouse hepatoma cells with 1 MUM cycloheximide shifted practically all of the monomers into polyribosomes resulting in an increase in the number-average size of the albumin synthesizing polyribosomes. Cycloheximide treatment, however, did not eliminate the size heterogeneity in the albumin synthesizing polyribosomes. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are predicted to regulate 30% of mammalian protein-encoding genes by interactions with their 3' untranslated regions (UTRs). We use partially complementary siRNAs to investigate the mechanism by which miRNAs mediate translational repression in human cells. Repressed mRNAs are associated with polyribosomes that are engaged in translation elongation, as shown by puromycin sensitivity. The inhibition appears to be postinitiation because translation driven by the cap-independent processes of HCV IRES and CrPV IRES is repressed by short RNAs. Further, metabolic labeling suggests that silencing occurs before completion of the nascent polypeptide chain. In addition, silencing by short RNAs causes a decrease in translational readthrough at a stop codon, and ribosomes on repressed mRNAs dissociate more rapidly after a block of initiation of translation than those on control mRNAs. These results suggest that repression by short RNAs, and thus probably miRNAs, is primarily due to ribosome drop off during elongation of translation. 相似文献
