The decoding of specific UGA codons as selenocysteine is specified by the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element. Additionally, Sec-tRNA([Ser]Sec) and the dedicated Sec-specific elongation factor eEFSec are required but not sufficient for nonsense suppression. SECIS binding protein 2 (SBP2) is also essential for Sec incorporation, but its precise role is unknown. In addition to binding the SECIS element, SBP2 binds stably and quantitatively to ribosomes. To determine the function of the SBP2-ribosome interaction, conserved amino acids throughout the SBP2 L7Ae RNA binding motif were mutated to alanine in clusters of five. Mutant proteins were analyzed for ribosome binding, SECIS element binding, and Sec incorporation activity, allowing us to identify two distinct but interdependent sites within the L7Ae motif: (i) a core L7Ae motif required for SECIS binding and ribosome binding and (ii) an auxiliary motif involved in physical and functional interactions with the ribosome. Structural modeling of SBP2 based on the 15.5-kDa protein-U4 snRNA complex strongly supports a two-site model for L7Ae domain function within SBP2. These results provide evidence that the SBP2-ribosome interaction is essential for Sec incorporation. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of selenium-containing proteins requires insertion of the unusual amino acid selenocysteine by alternative translation of a UGA codon, which ordinarily serves as a stop codon. In eukaryotes, selenoprotein translation depends upon one or more selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) elements located in the 3'-untranslated region of the mRNA, as well as several SECIS-binding proteins. Our laboratory has previously identified nuclease sensitive element binding protein 1 (NSEP1) as another SECIS-binding protein, but evidence has been presented both for and against its role in SECIS binding in vivo and in selenoprotein translation. Our current studies sought to resolve this controversy, first by investigating whether NSEP1 interacts closely with SECIS elements within intact cells. After reversible in vivo cross-linking and ribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitation, mRNAs encoding two glutathione peroxidase family members co-precipitated with NSEP1 in both human and rat cell lines. Co-immunoprecipitation of an epitope-tagged GPX1 construct depended upon an intact SECIS element in its 3'-untranslated region. To test the functional importance of this interaction on selenoprotein translation, we used small inhibitory RNAs to reduce the NSEP1 content of tissue culture cells and then examined the effect of that reduction on the activity of a SECIS-dependent luciferase reporter gene for which expression depends upon readthrough of a UGA codon. Co-transfection of small inhibitory RNAs directed against NSEP1 decreased its expression by approximately 50% and significantly reduced luciferase activity. These studies demonstrate that NSEP1 is an authentic SECIS binding protein that is structurally associated with the selenoprotein translation complex and functionally involved in the translation of selenoproteins in mammalian cells. 相似文献

In eukaryotes, the decoding of the UGA codon as selenocysteine (Sec) requires a Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element in the 3' untranslated region of the mRNA. We purified a SECIS binding protein, SBP2, and obtained a cDNA clone that encodes this activity. SBP2 is a novel protein containing a putative RNA binding domain found in ribosomal proteins and a yeast suppressor of translation termination. By UV cross-linking and immunoprecipitation, we show that SBP2 specifically binds selenoprotein mRNAs both in vitro and in vivo. Using (75)Se-labeled Sec-tRNA(Sec), we developed an in vitro system for analyzing Sec incorporation in which the translation of a selenoprotein mRNA was both SBP2 and SECIS element dependent. Immunodepletion of SBP2 from the lysates abolished Sec insertion, which was restored when recombinant SBP2 was added to the reaction. These results establish that SBP2 is essential for the co-translational insertion of Sec into selenoproteins. We hypothesize that the binding activity of SBP2 may be involved in preventing termination at the UGA/Sec codon. 相似文献

In eukaryotes, translation of internal UGA selenocysteine codons requires the SECIS stem-loop structure in the 3'UTR of selenoprotein mRNAs. In an earlier work, we identified SBP as a selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS)-binding protein. Here, the yeast three-hybrid screen was employed to capture the cDNA of SBP. One candidate, satisfying the genetic screens, was identified as the already known dbpB protein. Although it was also found by another group, but with a different strategy, to carry SECIS-binding activity, further experiments enabled us to show that dbpB was unable to bind the SECIS element in vitro. Altogether, our findings led us to conclude that, under our conditions, dbpB and SBP are two distinct proteins. 相似文献

Mutations in genes encoding polycystin-1 (PC1) and polycystin-2 cause autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. The polycystin protein family is composed of Ca2+-permeable pore-forming subunits and receptor-like integral membrane proteins. Here we describe a novel member of the polycystin-1-like subfamily, polycystin-1L2 (PC1L2), encoded by PKD1L2, which has various alternative splicing forms with two translation initiation sites. PC1L2 short form starts in exon 12 of the long form. The longest open reading frame of PKD1L2 short form, determined from human testis cDNA, encodes a 1775-amino-acid protein and 32 exons, whereas the long form is predicted to encode a 2460-residue protein. Both forms have a small receptor for egg jelly domain, a G-protein-coupled receptor proteolytic site, an LH2/PLAT, and 11 putative transmembrane domains, as well as a number of rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptor signatures. RT-PCR analysis shows that the short form, but not the long form, of human PKD1L2 is expressed in the developing and adult heart and kidney. Furthermore, by GST pull-down assay we observed that PC1L2 and polycystin-1L1 are able to bind to specific G-protein subunits. We also show that PC1 C-terminal cytosolic domain binds to Galpha12, Galphas, and Galphai1, while it weakly interacts with Galphai2. Our results indicate that both PC1-like molecules may act as G-protein-coupled receptors. 相似文献

cDNA cloning,expression pattern and RNA binding analysis of human selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) binding protein 2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Selenocysteine and selenoprotein synthesis require a complex molecular machinery in mammals. Among the key players is the RNA-protein complex formed by the selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) binding protein (SBP2) and the SECIS element, an RNA hairpin in the 3' untranslated regions of selenoprotein messenger RNAs (mRNAs). We have isolated the DNA complementary to mRNA of the human SBP2, enabling us to establish that it differs from a previously reported human SBP2-like protein. Examination of the expression pattern revealed that the human SBP2 protein is encoded by a 4 kb long mRNA that is over-expressed in testis. Compared to the rat SBP2 sequence, the human SBP2 protein displays two highly conserved domains with 92 and 95% amino acid identity, the latter one containing the RNA binding domain. The inter-domain section carries 55% sequence identity, the remainder of the SBP2 sequences showing about 65% identity, values lower than expected for two mammalian proteins. Interestingly, we could show that the binding of human SBP2 to the SECIS RNA is stimulated by the selenoprotein-specialized elongation translation factor mSelB/eEFsec. 相似文献

The cotranslational incorporation of the unusual amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) into both prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins requires the recoding of a UGA stop codon as one specific for Sec. The recognition of UGA as Sec in mammalian selenoproteins requires a Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element in the 3' untranslated region as well as the SECIS binding protein SBP2. Here we report a detailed analysis of SBP2 structure and function using truncation and site-directed mutagenesis. We have localized the RNA binding domain to a conserved region shared with several ribosomal proteins and eukaryotic translation termination release factor 1. We also identified a separate and novel functional domain N-terminal to the RNA binding domain which was required for Sec insertion but not for SECIS binding. Conversely, we showed that the RNA binding domain was necessary but not sufficient for Sec insertion and that the conserved glycine residue within this domain was required for SECIS binding. Using glycerol gradient sedimentation, we found that SBP2 was stably associated with the ribosomal fraction of cell lysates and that this interaction was not dependent on its SECIS binding activity. This interaction also occurred with purified components in vitro, and we present data which suggest that the SBP2-ribosome interaction occurs via 28S rRNA. SBP2 may, therefore, have a distinct function in selecting the ribosomes to be used for Sec insertion. 相似文献

Selenocysteine (Sec) is incorporated at UGA codons in mRNAs possessing a Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element in their 3'-untranslated region. At least three additional factors are necessary for Sec incorporation: SECIS-binding protein 2 (SBP2), Sec-tRNA(Sec), and a Sec-specific translation elongation factor (eEFSec). The C-terminal half of SBP2 is sufficient to promote Sec incorporation in vitro, which is carried out by the concerted action of a novel Sec incorporation domain and an L7Ae RNA-binding domain. Using alanine scanning mutagenesis, we show that two distinct regions of the Sec incorporation domain are required for Sec incorporation. Physical separation of the Sec incorporation and RNA-binding domains revealed that they are able to function in trans and established a novel role of the Sec incorporation domain in promoting SECIS and eEFSec binding to the SBP2 RNA-binding domain. We propose a model in which SECIS binding induces a conformational change in SBP2 that recruits eEFSec, which in concert with the Sec incorporation domain gains access to the ribosomal A site. 相似文献

To decipher the global network of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor-mediated signaling pathway, a large scale proteomic analysis of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins was conducted. Here, we focus on characterizing a novel protein, CFBP (CIN85/CD2AP family binding protein), identified in the study. CFBP was found to be phosphorylated at tyrosine 204 upon EGF stimulation, and the CIN85/CD2AP family was identified as a binding partner. A proline-rich motif of CFBP is recognized by one of the three Src-homology 3 domains of CIN85/CD2AP, and the affinity of the interaction is regulated by the tyrosine phosphorylation of CFBP. They co-localize in actinenriched structures, and overexpression of CFBP induced morphological changes with actin reorganization. Furthermore, CFBP accelerated the EGF receptor's down-regulation by facilitating the recruitment of Cbl to the CD2AP/CIN85 complex. Two spliced variants of CFBP lacking either exon 5 or 8 are also expressed, and the variant lacking exon 5 without the proline-rich motif lacks the ability to bind to the CIN85/CD2AP family. The CFBP protein seems to play a key role in the ligand-mediated internalization and down-regulation of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

Sec-tRNA(Sec) is site-specifically delivered at defined UGA codons in selenoprotein mRNAs. This recoding event is specified by the selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) element and requires the selenocysteine (Sec)-specific elongation factor, eEFSec, and the SECIS binding protein, SBP2. Sec-tRNA(Sec) is delivered to the ribosome by eEFSec-GTP, but this ternary complex is not sufficient for Sec incorporation, indicating that its access to the ribosomal A-site is regulated. SBP2 stably associates with ribosomes, and mutagenic analysis indicates that this interaction is essential for Sec incorporation. However, the ribosomal function of SBP2 has not been elucidated. To shed light on the functional relevance of the SBP2-ribosome interaction, we screened the functional centers of the 28 S rRNA in translationally competent 80 S ribosomes using selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE). We demonstrate that SBP2 specifically alters the reactivity of specific residues in Helix 89 (H89) and expansion segment 31 (ES31). These results are indicative of a conformational change in response to SBP2 binding. Based on the known functions of H89 during translation, we propose that SBP2 allows Sec incorporation by either promoting Sec-tRNA(Sec) accommodation into the peptidyltransferase center and/or by stimulating the ribosome-dependent GTPase activity of eEFSec. 相似文献
