Phosphorylation by protein kinase C of the mRNA cap binding protein purified as part of a cap binding protein complex (eIF-4F) or as a single protein (eIF-4E), has been examined. Significant phosphorylation (up to 1 mol of phosphate/mol of p25 subunit) occurs only when the protein is part of the eIF-4F complex. With purified eIF-4E, using the same conditions, up to 0.1 mol of phosphate can be incorporated. Tryptic phosphopeptide maps show that the site phosphorylated in the Mr 25,000 subunit of eIF-4F (eIF-4F p25) is the same as that modified in purified eIF-4E. Kinetic measurements obtained from initial rates indicate that the Km values for eIF-4F and eIF-4E are similar, although the Vmax is 5-6 times higher for the complex. Dephosphorylation of eIF-4F p25, previously phosphorylated with protein kinase C, occurs in reticulocyte lysate with a half-life of 15-20 min, whereas little dephosphorylation is observed after 15 min with the purified phosphorylated eIF-4E. Phosphorylation of eIF-4F on the p220 and p25 subunits does not affect the stability of the complex as indicated by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300. However, addition of non-phosphorylated eIF-4E to the phosphorylated complex results in the dissociation of the complex. These results suggest that interaction of p25 with other subunits in the complex greatly affects phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of p25. Since the rate of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation is significantly greater in the complex, regulation of the cap binding protein by phosphorylation appears to occur primarily on eIF-4F. 相似文献

The 25-kDa mRNA cap-binding protein (eIF-4E) exists in both phosphorylated and dephosphorylated forms in eukaryotic cells. Phosphorylated eIF-4E appears to be preferentially associated with 48 S initiation complexes and with the 220-kDa subunit of eIF-4F. In addition, dephosphorylation of eIF-4E has been observed during heat shock and mitosis which are accompanied by decreased protein synthesis. However, the control of eIF-4E phosphorylation and its regulatory role remain poorly understood. Using eIF-4E as a substrate we have identified and purified from rabbit reticulocytes a protein kinase that phosphorylates eIF-4E in vitro. This enzyme phosphorylated eIF-4E on both serine and threonine residues with an apparent Km of 3.7 microM. The molecular mass of the enzyme and specificity for substrates other than eIF-4E suggested that this enzyme was a species of casein kinase I. This was confirmed by comparing the phosphopeptide map of the purified reticulocyte enzyme with that of rabbit skeletal muscle casein kinase I and by comparing phosphopeptide maps of eIF-4E phosphorylated in vitro by each enzyme. We conclude that casein kinase I phosphorylates eIF-4E in vitro and suggest that eIF-4E may be phosphorylated by casein kinase I in intact cells under some physiologic conditions. 相似文献

Identification and quantitation of levels of protein synthesis initiation factors in crude HeLa cell lysates by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
Protein synthesis initiation factors in purified preparations and in crude lysates of HeLa cells were fractionated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in order to characterize their molecular forms. Specific spots in the complex cytoplasmic protein gel pattern which corresponded to the initiation factor proteins were identified by co-migration of purified initiation factors with 35S-labeled cell lysates, partial proteolytic digestion mapping, and immunoblotting analysis using antisera or affinity-purified antibodies to the initiation factors. Spots identified as eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 2 alpha, eIF-2 beta, eIF-2 gamma, eIF-4A, and four eIF-3 proteins of less than 50,000 Da corresponded to moderately abundant lysate proteins. Minor isoelectric variant forms of eIF-2 beta, eIF-2 gamma, and eIF-4A were detected by immunoblot analysis of lysate proteins, suggesting either covalent modification of these factor proteins or contaminating antibodies. eIF-2 beta and eIF-4B were present in at least two isoelectric forms, confirming covalent modification of these proteins. The cellular levels of the initiation factor proteins were measured by excising and counting radioactivity in gel-resolved spots corresponding to factors in lysates labeled in vivo. The individual factor protein abundancies span nearly a 10-fold range, from 1.1 to 9.8 million molecules/cell. The factor to ribosome ratio for eIF-2 was 0.8, for the average eIF-3 protein about 0.6, and for eIF-4A it was significantly higher at 3.0. 相似文献

About an eightfold increase in protamine kinase activity was detected following extraction of highly purified microsomes from bovine kidney with 1% Triton X-100. Relative to the soluble fraction, the microsomes contained about 30% protamine kinase activity. The microsomal protamine kinase was purified to apparent homogeneity. The purified enzyme exhibited an apparent M(r) approximately 45,000 as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and by gel permeation chromatography on Sephacryl S-200. Relative to protamine, the purified kinase exhibited about 100% activity with the synthetic peptide RRLSSLRA and about 5, 8, and less than 0.1% activity with casein, histone H2B, and histone H1, respectively. The purified kinase phosphorylated several 40 S ribosome polypeptides. One of these polypeptides was identified as ribosomal protein S6 by N-terminal sequencing. About 2.5 mol of phosphoryl groups was incorporated per mole of ribosomal protein S6 following incubation of the 40 S ribosomes with the purified kinase. Following incubation with protein phosphatase 2A2, purified preparations of the protamine kinase were inactivated. These properties were identical to those of purified preparations of a protamine kinase from extracts of bovine kidney cytosol (Z. Damuni, G.D. Amick, and T.R. Sneed, 1989, J. Biol. Chem. 264, 6412-6418). Near identical peptide patterns were obtained following incubation of purified preparations of the microsomal and cytosolic protamine kinases with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase. The results indicate that a form of the cytosolic protamine kinase is present in microsomes. 相似文献

Phosphorylation site of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Eukaryotic protein synthesis initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E) was labeled in situ with [32P]orthophosphate in cultured HeLa cells and rabbit reticulocytes and purified by affinity chromatography. Tryptic digestion yielded one labeled peptide which contained predominantly serine and lysine. After treatment of the protein with citraconic anhydride to block epsilon-amino groups of lysyl residues, tryptic digestion yielded a labeled peptide whose composition was consistent with the structure Trp-Ala-Leu-Trp-Phe-Phe-Lys-Asn-Asp-Lys-Ser(P)-Lys-Thr-Trp-Gln-Ala-Asn-L eu-Arg, one of the arginyl peptides predicted from the human eIF-4E cDNA sequence. The only serine in this peptide is located at position 53 of eIF-4E. Thus, it is concluded that eIF-4E contains a single site of phosphorylation for an endogenous protein kinase, which is Ser-53 in the human eIF-4E sequence. 相似文献

An important aspect of the regulation of gene expression is the modulation of translation rates in response to growth factors, hormones and mitogens. Most of this control is at the level of translation initiation. Recent studies have implicated the MAP kinase pathway in the regulation of translation by insulin and growth factors. MAP kinase phosphorylates a repressor of translation initiation [4E-binding protein (BP) 1] that binds to the mRNA 5' cap binding protein eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)-4E and inhibits cap-dependent translation. Phosphorylation of the repressor decreases its affinity for eIF-4E, and thus relieves translational inhibition. eIF-4E forms a complex with two other polypeptides, eIF-4A and p220, that promote 40S ribosome binding to mRNA. Here, we have studied the mechanism by which 4E-BP1 inhibits translation. We show that 4E-BP1 inhibits 48S pre-initiation complex formation. Furthermore, we demonstrate that 4E-BP1 competes with p220 for binding to eIF-4E. Mutants of 4E-BP1 that are deficient in their binding to eIF-4E do not inhibit the interaction between p220 and eIF-4E, and do not repress translation. Thus, translational control by growth factors, insulin and mitogens is affected by changes in the relative affinities of 4E-BP1 and p220 for eIF-4E. 相似文献

The double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-dependent protein kinase which catalyzes the phosphorylation of ribosome-associated protein P1 and the alpha subunit of eukaryotic protein synthesis initiation factor 2 (eIF-2) was purified and characterized from mouse fibroblast L929 cells treated with either natural or recombinant interferon and from untreated cells. The dsRNA-dependent P1/eIF-2 alpha kinase was purified at least 1,500-fold from interferon-treated cells; the kinase activity that catalyzed the phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha copurified with protein P1. The yield of P1/eIF-2 alpha protein kinase activity obtained following purification from cells treated with interferon was about 5-10 times greater than the yield from an equivalent number of untreated cells. The purified protein kinase remained dsRNA dependent. When P1 kinase was activated by dsRNA, a major phosphopeptide designated Xds was phosphorylated; Xds was not phosphorylated from P1 which had not been activated by dsRNA. The apparent native molecular weight of the purified mouse L929 dsRNA-dependent kinase as determined by sedimentation analysis was about 62,000, comparable to the molecular weight of 67,000 determined for denatured L929 phosphoprotein P1 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified protein kinase was highly selective for the alpha subunit of protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-2 and endogenous protein P1. Kinase activity was dependent upon Mg2+, and the Km for ATP was determined to be 5 X 10(-6) M. Histones (H1, H2A-B, H3, and H4) and protein synthesis initiation factors other than eIF-2 (eIF-3, eIF-4A, eIF-4B, and eIF-5) were not substrates or were very poor substrates for the purified dsRNA-dependent protein kinase. N-Ethylmaleimide, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, AMP, pyrophosphate, spermine, spermidine, and high concentrations of potassium inhibited both P1 and eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation by the purified kinase, whereas ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid and phenanthroline did not significantly affect the phosphorylation of either protein P1 or eIF-2 alpha. 相似文献

Regulated phosphorylation and low abundance of HeLa cell initiation factor eIF-4F suggest a role in translational control. Heat shock effects on eIF-4F 总被引:46,自引:0,他引:46
Initiation factor eIF-4F, a multiprotein cap binding protein complex, was purified from HeLa cells by m7G affinity chromatography and independently by phosphocellulose column chromatography. The m7G affinity-purified sample contains three major proteins, p220, eIF-4A, and p28 (also known as CBP-I or eIF-4E). The abundancies of these proteins are roughly 2, 10, and 0.8 X 10(6) molecules/cell, respectively. Two-dimensional isoelectric focusing/sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the eIF-4F samples shows that p28 comprises two isoelectric variants, one of which labels with phosphate and disappears when samples are treated with alkaline phosphatase. The 45,000-dalton protein in eIF-4F appears to be identical to eIF-4A. The p220 subunit rarely produces discrete spots on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis; in purified samples it usually forms 3 closely spaced streaks. eIF-4F fractionated by phosphocellulose chromatography separates into forms containing either phosphorylated or unphosphorylated p28. However, both fractions possess similar specific activities in in vitro translation assays for eIF-4F activity. The phosphorylation of p28 decreases upon heat shock when protein synthesis is repressed. The correlation of dephosphorylation of p28 with the inhibition of protein synthesis and the relatively low abundance of the eIF-4F complex suggest that eIF-4F plays a role in the translational control of mRNA binding. Limitations of the in vitro assay system may account for the failure to detect phosphorylation-dependent activity differences. 相似文献

Identification of a protein kinase activity in rabbit reticulocytes that phosphorylates the mRNA cap binding protein 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The 25 kDa mRNA cap binding protein can be purified in a partially phosphorylated state and the extent of its phosphorylation appears to be regulated during heat shock and mitosis in mammalian cells. We demonstrated that a nonabundant serine protein kinase activity exists in rabbit reticulocytes that phosphorylates the 25 kDa cap binding protein in both the free (eIF-4E) and complexed (eIF-4F) state. This kinase was not inhibited by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitory peptide IAAGRTGRRNAIHDILVAA, did not phosphorylate S6 ribosomal protein, did not phosphorylate p220 of eIF-4F as protein kinase C does and no other substrates for this kinase were apparent in reticulocyte ribosomal salt wash. The molecular identity of this kinase, the specific site(s) of eIF-4E that it phosphorylates and its in vivo regulatory role remain to be studied. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-4E from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
A 24 000-dalton protein [yeast eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E)] was purified from yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae postribosomal supernatant by m7GDP-agarose affinity chromatography. The protein behaves very similarly to mammalian protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-4E with respect to binding to and elution from m7GDP-agarose columns and cross-linking to oxidized reovirus mRNA cap structures. Yeast eIF-4E is required for translation as shown by the strong and specific inhibition of cell-free translation in a yeast extract by a monoclonal antibody directed against yeast eIF-4E. 相似文献

Eukaryotic initiation factor 4D. Purification from human red blood cells and the sequence of amino acids around its single hypusine residue 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Eukaryotic initiation factor 4D (eIF-4D) was purified from human red blood cells by a simple 5-step procedure. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that most of the preparations of eIF-4D were composed of variable amounts of two closely migrating forms of the factor, each of which contained a single residue of the unique amino acid hypusine. The structural similarity of the two forms of human eIF-4D was evidenced by the indistinguishable patterns of radioactivity on peptide maps of tryptic digests prepared from radioiodinated samples. A peptide containing the single hypusine residue was readily isolated from a tryptic digest of human eIF-4D by virtue of its high positive charge and hydrophilic character. Amino acid sequence determination on this peptide revealed the following primary structure around hypusine: Thr-Gly-hypusine-His-Gly-His-Ala-Lys. 相似文献

The stimulation of translation in starfish oocytes by the maturation hormone, 1-methyladenine (1-MA), requires the activation or mobilization of both initiation factors and mRNAs [Xu and Hille, Cell Regul. 1:1057, 1990]. We identify here the translational initiation complex, eIF-4F, and the guanine nucleotide exchange factor for eIF-2, eIF-2B, as the rate controlling components of protein synthesis in immature oocytes of the starfish, Pisaster orchraceus. Increased phosphorylation of eIF-4E, the cap binding subunit of the eIF-4F complex, is coincident with the initial increase in translational activity during maturation of these oocytes. Significantly, protein kinase C activity increased during oocyte maturation in parallel with the increase in eIF-4E phosphorylation and protein synthesis. An increase in the activities of cdc2 kinase and mitogen-activated myelin basic protein kinase (MBP kinase) similarly coincide with the increase in eIF-4E phosphorylation. However, neither cdc2 kinase nor MBP kinase phosphorylates eIF-4E in vitro. Casein kinase II activity does not change during oocyte maturation, and therefore, cannot be responsible for the activation of translation. Treatment of oocytes with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, an activator of protein kinase C, for 30 min prior to the addition of 1-MA resulted in the inhibition of 1-MA-induced phosphorylation of eIF-4E, translational activation, and germinal vesicle breakdown. Therefore, protein kinase C may phosphorylate eIF-4E, after very early events of maturation. Another possibility is that eIF-4E is phosphorylated by an unknown kinase that is activated by the cascade of reactions stimulated by 1-MA. In conclusion, our results suggest a role for the phosphorylation of eIF-4E in the activation of translation during maturation, similar to translational regulation during the stimulation of growth in mammalian cells. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The role of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2) phosphorylation in translational control has been demonstrated in vivo by overexpressing variant forms of eIF-2 alpha that are not phosphorylated. COS-1 cells transiently transfected with expression vectors for human eIF-2 alpha contain 10-20-fold more eIF-2 alpha subunit than the endogenous COS cell eIF-2 trimeric complex. Expression of the variant form of eIF-2 alpha, Ser51Asp, where Asp replaces Ser51, causes inhibition of protein synthesis, whereas the Ser48Asp variant does not. When either Ser48 or Ser51 is replaced by Ala, the variants stimulate dihydrofolate reductase synthesis when the eIF-2 alpha kinase, DAI, is activated. In order to elucidate these mechanisms, we have separated eIF-2 trimeric complexes from free overexpressed eIF-2 alpha subunits by fast protein liquid chromatography Superose chromatography. Pulse-labeled cells transfected with wild-type or variant DNAs produced eIF-2 preparations with greater than 10-fold higher specific radioactivity in the alpha-subunit compared to the gamma-subunit, thus demonstrating that the human eIF-2 alpha produced from the plasmids readily exchanges into COS cell eIF-2 complexes. Both wild-type and Ser48Ala variant forms of the free 2 alpha-subunit, further purified by MonoQ chromatography, are poor substrates for the heme-regulated eIF-2 alpha kinase, HRI, but are good substrates for double-stranded RNA-activated inhibitor in vitro; the Ser51Ala variant subunit is not phosphorylated by either kinase. None of the purified free eIF-2 alpha subunits inhibits phosphorylation of eIF-2 in vitro, even at up to 8-fold molar excess. Examination of the extent of eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation in the COS cell eIF-2 complexes by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis shows that the stimulation of dihydrofolate reductase synthesis by the Ser51Ala variant is most readily explained by failure of eIF-2 to be phosphorylated. Stimulation by the Ser48Ala variant appears to occur by mitigation of the effect of phosphorylation at Ser51 since the double variant, Ser48Ala-Ser51Asp, inhibits protein synthesis less than the single variant Ser51Asp. The evidence argues strongly against there being a second site of phosphorylation involved in translational repression. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of glycogen synthase and of the beta subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor two by a common protein kinase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A protein kinase from rabbit reticulocytes, able to phosphorylate the beta subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2), has been demonstrated to phosphorylate also glycogen synthase. A glycogen synthase kinase (PC0.7) from rabbit skeletal muscle has been shown to phosphorylate the beta subunit of eIF-2. Comparison of highly purified preparations of the two protein kinases has indicated several similarities of properties. 1) Both enzymes were associated with two major polypeptide species, alpha (Mr = 43,000) and beta (Mr = 25,000), and exhibited apparent native molecular weights of 176,000-180,000 by gel filtration and 130,000-140,000 by sucrose density gradient sedimentation. 2) Both enzymes phosphorylated glycogen synthase, eIF-2 beta, phosvitin, and casein and were effective in utilizing GTP and ATP as phosphoryl donors. 3) Both enzymes displayed the same chromatographic behavior on phosvitin-Sepharose, phosphocellulose, and DEAE-cellulose. 4) Both enzymes underwent an autophosphorylation of the beta polypeptide when incubated with ATP and Mg2+. On the basis of these and other properties, we propose that the two protein kinases, if not identical, are very similar enzymes. 相似文献

A 10-50-fold, biphasic increase in the rate of 32Pi labeling of eIF-4E was closely correlated with the induction of protein and glycoprotein biosynthesis when resting murine splenic B lymphocytes (B cells) were activated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide or the combination of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and ionomycin. The fraction of eIF-4E which was phosphorylated only increased from 46% in resting cells to 83% in lipopolysaccharide-activated cells. This discrepancy between the increase in the fraction of phosphorylated eIF-4E and the increase in 32Pi labeling suggested that the phosphoryl group of eIF-4E turns over slowly in resting B cells compared with activated cells. The turnover rate for the eIF-4E phosphate moiety in lipopolysaccharide-activated cells was rapid (t1/2 = 2 h) in comparison to the eIF-4E polypeptide chain, which did not turn over detectably in 6 h. Neither protein kinase C nor a cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase appeared to be involved in eIF-4E phosphorylation in B cells, based on the observations that the metabolic labeling of eIF-4E by 32Pi was insensitive to the protein kinase inhibitors H-7 and HA1004, and that maximal labeling occurred after protein kinase C activity was "down-regulated" to very low levels in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate/ionomycin-activated cells. Dephosphorylation in vivo was blocked by okadaic acid (IC50 = 200 nM). These results indicate that a rapid phosphorylation-dephosphorylation of eIF-4E is associated with high translation rates during the activation of B cells, and implicate protein phosphatase-1 (or possibly-2A) in the dephosphorylation of the initiation factor. 相似文献

Dormant and developing embryos of Artemia salina contain equivalent amounts of eIF-2, the eukaryotic initiation factor which forms a ternary complex with GTP and Met-tRNAf. The factor was purified from 0.5 M NH4Cl ribosomal washes by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, followed by chromatography on heparin-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose, hydroxyapatite and phosphocellulose. Purified preparations from dormant and developing embryos have similar specific activities and nucleotide requirements. The mobility of both proteins in dodecylsulfate gel electrophoresis is indistinguishable, and each contains three major polypeptide chains of molecular weight 52 000, 45 000 and 42 000. Both proteins are also immunologically identical, and each stimulates amino acid incorporation in a cell-free system of protein synthesis. The binding of [35S]Met-tRNAf to 40-S ribosomal subunits is catalyzed by eIF-2 isolated from dormant or developing embryos and is dependent upon GPT and AUG. Binding of [35S]Met-tRNAf to 40-S ribosomal subunits, and ternary complex formation with eIF-2, GTP, and [35S]Met-tRNAf is stimulated 2--3-fold by a factor present in the 0.5 M NH4Cl ribosomal wash and which elutes from DEAE-cellulose at 50 mM KCl. This protein does not exhibit GTP-dependent binding of [35S]Met-tRNAf. Binding of GDP and GTP was investigated with purified eIF-2 from developing embryos. The factor forms a binary complex with GDP or GTP, and eIF-2-bound [3H]GDP exchanges very slowly with free nucleotides. Our results suggest that eIF-2 does not limit resumption of embryo development following encystment, nor does it limit mRNA translation in extracts from dormant embryos. 相似文献

Comparative analysis of phosphorylation of translational initiation and elongation factors by seven protein kinases 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Four initiation factors (eIF-2, -3, -4B, and -4F), previously shown to be phosphorylated in vivo, are each phosphorylated to a significant extent in vitro (greater than 0.3 mol of phosphate/mol of factor) by at least three different protein kinases. An S6 kinase from liver, an active form of protease-activated kinase II which modifies the same sites on S6 as those phosphorylated in vivo in response to mitogens, phosphorylates the beta subunit of eIF-2, eIF-3 (p120-p130), eIF-4B, and eIF-4F (p220). The Ca2+, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates eIF-2 beta, eIF-3 (p170, p120-p130), eIF-4B, and eIF-4F (p220, p25). The cAMP-dependent protein kinase significantly modifies eIF-4B and, to a lesser extent, eIF-3 (p130). Casein kinase I incorporates phosphate only into eIF-4B, but to a limited extent. Casein kinase II phosphorylates eIF-2 beta, eIF-3 (p170, p120), and eIF-4B, while protease-activated kinase I modifies eIF-3 (p170, p120-p130), eIF-4B, and eIF-4F (p220). The mitogen-stimulated S6 kinase from 3T3-L1 cells, activated in response to insulin, does not phosphorylate any of the initiation factors. There is no significant incorporation of phosphate into eIF-2 alpha or -gamma, eIF-4A, eIF-4C, eIF-4D, EF-1, or EF-2 by any of the protein kinases examined. Phosphopeptide mapping of tryptic digests of the phosphorylated subunits shows that the individual protein kinases modify different sites. The sites phosphorylated in vitro reflect those modified in vivo as shown with eIF-4F in concomitant studies with reticulocytes treated with tumor-promoting phorbol ester (Morley, S.J., and Traugh, J. A. J. Biol. Chem., in press). Thus, we have identified multipotential protein kinases which modify four initiation factors phosphorylated in vivo and have shown that phosphorylation of these translational components can be coordinately regulated. 相似文献

Phosphorylation and guanine nucleotide exchange on polypeptide chain initiation factor-2 from Artemia embryos 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Eukaryotic initiation factor-2 (eIF-2) from Artemia embryos is able to exchange guanine nucleotides at the same rate in the presence or absence of Mg2+ when the reaction is carried out with either purified eIF-2 at 30 degrees C or less purified preparations at any temperature (10-30 degrees C). No exchange factor appears to catalyze this reaction. However, with purified eIF-2 at lower temperatures (10 degrees C) the exchange is clearly impaired by Mg2+ and this impairment is overcome by the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) of rabbit reticulocytes. Thus, Artemia eIF-2 is able to exchange guanine nucleotides by two alternative mechanisms that may reflect two states of the protein. Phosphorylation of the eIF-2 alpha subunit by the heme-controlled inhibitor (HCI) of rabbit reticulocytes abolishes the GEF-dependent reaction, but has no effect on the factor-independent one. The search for eIF-2 alpha kinases in Artemia embryo led to the detection of only one such enzyme, which was identified as a casein kinase type II. None of the exchange reactions is affected by the phosphorylation of the eIF-2 alpha subunit by this kinase, suggesting that, irrespective of the kind of mechanism for guanine nucleotide exchange that is actually operating in Artemia, it might not be a target for regulation by eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation. 相似文献

Eukaryotic initiation factor 5 from calf liver is a single polypeptide chain protein of Mr = 62,000 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Eukaryotic initiation factor 5 (eIF-5), which specifically catalyzes the joining of a 60 S ribosomal subunit to a 40 S initiation complex to form a functional 80 S initiation complex, has been purified from ribosomal salt wash proteins of calf liver. The purified factor exhibits only one polypeptide band of Mr = 62,000 following electrophoresis in 10% polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The native protein has a sedimentation coefficient of 4.2 S and a Stokes radius of 33 A which is consistent with eIF-5 being a monomeric protein of Mr = 58,000-62,000. Less pure preparations of eIF-5 elute in gel filtration columns with an apparent Mr of 160,000-180,000 presumably due to association of eIF-5 with other high molecular weight proteins since eIF-5 activity present in such preparations can also be shown by gel electrophoretic separation under denaturing conditions to be associated with a 62,000-dalton protein. Furthermore, eIF-5 purified from calf liver extracts with or without a number of protease inhibitors is indistinguishable with regard to molecular weight and final specific activity of purified preparations. The purified factor catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP present in 40 S initiation complexes in the absence of 60 S ribosomal subunits. The presence of 60 S ribosomal subunits neither stimulates nor inhibits the hydrolysis of GTP. However, the factor cannot mediate 40 S or 40 + 60 S ribosome-dependent hydrolysis of GTP in the absence of Met-tRNAf or other components required for 40 S initiation complex formation. It can be calculated that 1 pmol of eIF-5 protein can catalyze the formation of at least 10 pmol of 80 S initiation complex under the conditions of in vitro initiation reactions. 相似文献

Possible involvement of the 90-kDa heat shock protein in the regulation of protein synthesis 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The heme-sensitive eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)-2 alpha kinase regulates translational activity in reticulocytes by phosphorylation of the smallest subunit of eukaryotic peptide initiation factor 2, eIF-2. Highly purified preparations of the kinase contain an abundant 90-kDa polypeptide which appears to modulate the activity of the enzyme. The physical properties and structural characteristics of the reticulocyte 90-kDa peptide are similar to those of the 90-kDa heat shock protein (hsp 90) from HeLa and other mammalian cells. The reticulocyte and HeLa cell proteins are shown to be immunologically cross-reactive. A direct comparison of the two proteins by one-dimensional peptide mapping of large peptides generated by limited proteolysis and by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography analysis of tryptic peptides indicates that they represent the same protein species. Like the 90-kDa reticulocyte protein, HeLa cell hsp 90 causes increased eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation by the heme-sensitive kinase and is a potent inhibitor of protein synthesis in the reticulocyte lysate system. A potential mechanism for the latter inhibition is inferred. These results implicate hsp 90 in the regulation of protein synthesis via its interaction with and perhaps regulation of the heme-sensitive kinase and phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha. 相似文献
