Phosphorylation of translational initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) by cyclic AMP-regulated protein kinase.
Translational initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) is phosphorylated by the cyclic AMP-regulated protein kinases from rabbit reticulocytes. eIF-3 is a large molecular weight complex which facilitates binding of the ternary complex containing met tRNAf, GTP and initiation factor 2 to 40S ribosomal subunits. A single polypeptide with a molecular weight of 130,000 is modified. The phosphorylation is dependent upon the presence of cyclic AMP and is inhibited by the inhibitor protein diagnostic for cyclic AMP-regulated protein kinase. Assuming a molecular weight of 700,000 for eIF-3, one mole of phosphate is incorporated per mole of eIF-3. Thus the phosphorylation of two interacting components of the protein synthesizing system, 40S ribosomal subunits and eIF-3, is controlled by cyclic AMP. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of initiation factor elF-2 and the control of reticulocyte protein synthesis 总被引:124,自引:0,他引:124
When rabbit reticulocyte lysates are incubated in the absence of hemin or in the presence of low concentrations of double-stranded RNA, the rate of initiation of protein synthesis is severely reduced after a lag period in which control rates are observed. This reduced initiation rate is due to inhibition of the binding of Methionyl-tRNAf to native 40S ribosomal subunits and is caused by a macromolecular inhibitor which is activated under these conditions. This paper shows that the inhibitors activated in these two situations appear to be different entities, but that in both cases, the inhibitor has an associated protein kinase activity which is highly selective for the small subunit of elF-2, the initiation factor which catalyzes binding of Methionyl-tRNAf to 40S subunits. We present several lines of evidence in support of the hypothesis that the phosphorylation of elF-2 by these kinases is basis of the control of initiation in lysates incubated under these conditions. 相似文献

Initiation of protein synthesis: evidence for messenger RNA-independent binding of methionyl-transfer RNA to the 40 S ribosomal subunit 总被引:45,自引:0,他引:45
This paper shows that reticuloeyte lysates contain 40 S/Met-tRNAf complexes which are intermediates in the initiation of protein synthesis before the involvement of messenger RNA. More than one third of the native 40 S subunits in the lysate exist as these complexes during periods of linear protein synthesis, but less than a tenth are associated with mRNA.The 40 S/Met-tRNAf complexes disappear in some situations in which initiation is inhibited (by double-stranded RNA, oxidized glutathione, or in the absence of added haemin), but persist in the presence of other inhibitors (e.g. aurintricarboxylate or poly(I)). Inhibitors of chain elongation had little effect on the amount of these complexes.The Met-tRNAf in the 40 S complexes appears to exchange readily with free Met-tRNAf; when lysates were preincubated with sparsomycin or diphtheria toxin and then incubated with [35S]Met-tRNAf, the native 40 S subunits were the only ribosomal particles labelled. This experimental system was used to examine whether 40 S/Met-tRNAf complexes could interact with mRNA; various mRNAs were added shortly after or at the same time as the [35S]Met-tRNAf. This resulted in a conversion of the 40 S/Met-tRNAf complexes into 80 S complexes, which appeared to be true initiation complexes since they were capable of translating the first two codons of the added mRNA. The mRNA-dependent formation of these 80 S complexes was completely inhibited by 0.1 mM-aurintricarboxylate, but the association of Met-tRNAf with the 40 S subunits was not prevented.The 40 S/Met-tRNAf complexes also participated in initiation on endogenous mRNA, and it was shown that the Met-tRNAf in this complex was used in preference to free Met-tRNAf in this process.We propose that the first step in the initiation of protein synthesis in the reticuloeyte lysate is the formation of a 40 S/Met-tRNAf complex. In the second stage the complex binds mRNA at the correct initiation site and, after joining with a 60 S subunit, an 80 S/Met-tRNAf/mRNA initiation complex is formed. 相似文献

PROTEIN synthesis in at least some mammalian cells is probably initiated by Met-tRNAf1–3, which binds to salt-washed ribosomes at low Mg2+ concentrations in the presence of AUG and initiation factors4,5. Myosin mRNA will bind to 40S ribosomal subunits and if this represents a true initiation complex, it should bind specific initiator tRNA6,7. We report that an initiation complex specific for Met-tRNAf can be formed with the 40S ribosomal subunit isolated from mouse plasmacytoma tumours. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP and a variety of purines are able to overcome the inhibition of the initiation of protein synthesis caused by incubation of the lysate in the absence of added hemin or with double-stranded RNA or oxidised glutathione. These three inhibitions show similar kinetics and are each accompanied by the disappearance of a complex between the 40S ribosomal subunits and met-tRNAf. A translational repressor has been implicated in the inhibition seen in the absence of hemin and we suggest that the link between these three inhibitions is the accumulation of this repressor. 相似文献

Low-molecular-weight RNA (4S to > 5.5S) isolated from nuclear ribonucleo-protein particles of adenovirus-infected HeLa cells inhibited cell-free protein synthesis directed by polyribosomal RNA from rabbit reticulocytes by more than 80%. In a reconstituted system inhibitory RNA did not prevent the binding of Met-tRNAf-GTP-IF ternary complex to 40S subunits; however, it repressed the formation of 80S from 40S-mRNA complex and 60S subunits. In binding assays in which authentic IF-M2A and IF-M2B were present, the inhibitor competed with messenger molecules for binding site(s) in IF-M2B. The inhibitory RNA appears to be a 5.5S RNA. 相似文献

Resistance of bacterial protein synthesis to double-stranded RNA 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Double-stranded RNA fails to inhibit the formation of translation initiation complexes on R17 bacteriophage RNA, overall synthesis of R17 proteins, or the ability of bacterial initiation factor IF-3 to prevent the association of 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits into single ribosomes. Yet, IF-3 can form complexes with double-stranded RNA. However, IF-3 binds to double-stranded RNA with lower apparent affinity than to either R17 RNA or 30S ribosomal subunits; this may explain the resistance of bacterial protein synthesis to double-stranded RNA. 相似文献

An initiation factor from rabbit reticulocytes can overcome the block in initiation of protein synthesis occurring in reticulocyte lysates when exogenous hemin is not present, or when double-stranded RNA is added. This factor has been identified with IF-MP, an initiation factor capable of forming ternary complexes with GTP and methionyl-tRNAF. Initiation factor IF-M3 by itself is unable to overcome the block in initiation, but appears to stimulate this activity of IF-MP. IF-MP binds to single-stranded R17 RNA as well as to double-stranded RNA, while IF-M3 only binds to double-stranded RNA. The protein synthetic activity of IF-MP is sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide, but its ability to bind RNA is resistant. 相似文献

Eukaryotic cells contain several unconventional poly(A) polymerases in addition to the canonical enzymes responsible for the synthesis of poly(A) tails of nuclear messenger RNA precursors. The yeast protein Trf4p has been implicated in a quality control pathway that leads to the polyadenylation and subsequent exosome-mediated degradation of hypomethylated initiator tRNAMet (tRNAiMet). Here we show that Trf4p is the catalytic subunit of a new poly(A) polymerase complex that contains Air1p or Air2p as potential RNA-binding subunits, as well as the putative RNA helicase Mtr4p. Comparison of native tRNAiMet with its in vitro transcribed unmodified counterpart revealed that the unmodified RNA was preferentially polyadenylated by affinity-purified Trf4 complex from yeast, as well as by complexes reconstituted from recombinant components. These results and additional experiments with other tRNA substrates suggested that the Trf4 complex can discriminate between native tRNAs and molecules that are incorrectly folded. Moreover, the polyadenylation activity of the Trf4 complex stimulated the degradation of unmodified tRNAiMet by nuclear exosome fractions in vitro. Degradation was most efficient when coupled to the polyadenylation activity of the Trf4 complex, indicating that the poly(A) tails serve as signals for the recruitment of the exosome. This polyadenylation-mediated RNA surveillance resembles the role of polyadenylation in bacterial RNA turnover. 相似文献

Severe muscle wasting is a characteristic feature of sepsis. We have previously established that the rate of protein synthesis in muscles composed of fast-twitch fibers is severely diminished in response to sepsis. The present studies investigate the biochemical reactions responsible for the decreased rate of protein synthesis using gastrocnemius from control and septic rats perfused in situ. Analysis of free ribosomal subunits indicated peptide-chain initiation was impaired by infection. To characterize biochemical reactions in the pathway of peptide-chain initiation affected, the effect of sepsis on the incorporation of initiator [35S]methionyl-tRNA (met-tRNAi
mec) into the 40S initiation complex was examined. Sepsis caused a 65% decrease in the binding of radiolabelled met-tRNAi
mec to the 40S initiation complex compared with controls. The binding of met-tRNAmec to the 40S ribosome is regulated by eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2B, whose activity can be modulated in part by the redox state of pyridine dinucleotides. The mean cytoplasmic NADH/NAD+ ratio was increased 2 fold in sepsis, while the NADPH/NADP+ ratio was unchanged. These findings identify the formation of the 40S initiation complex as a defect in the protein synthesis machinery during sepsis. The decreased formation of the 40S initiation complex in muscle could not be explained by changes in the cytoplasmic redox state. 相似文献

The effect of elevated temperature on the activity of various components involved in protein synthesis was investigated in extracts from cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells. The translation of exogenous mRNA was markedly inhibited by preincubation of the extract for 15 to 20 minutes at 42°C. However, the following intermediary reactions were not affected, or only slightly inhibited, at 42°C: 1) the incorporation of Met-tRNAf into eIF-2·Met-tRNAf·GTP ternary complex; 2) the interaction of the ternary complex with 40S ribosomal subunits to form the 40S preinitiation intermediate; 3) the binding of mRNA and 60S subunits to form the 80S initiation complex; and 4) the reactions catalyzed by elongation factors EF-1 and EF-2. The activity of Met-tRNA synthetase was markedly inhibited, affecting the formation of initiator Met-tRNAf required for the initiation of protein synthesis and the translation of natural mRNA. Other aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases were not significantly affected by the elevated temperature. 相似文献

Initiation of mammalian protein synthesis. II. The assembly of the initiation complex with purified initiation factors 总被引:39,自引:0,他引:39
The assembly of initiation complexes is studied in a protein synthesis initiation assay containing ribosomal subunits, globin [125I]mRNA, [3H]Met-tRNAf, seven purified initiation factors, ATP and GTP. By omitting single components from the initiation assay, specific roles of the initiation factors, ATP and GTP are demonstrated. The initiation factor eIF-2 is required for the binding of Met-tRNAf to the 40 S ribosomal subunit. The initial Met-tRNAf binding to the small ribosomal subunit is a stringent prerequisite for the subsequent mRNA binding. The initiation factors eIF-3, eIF-4A, eIF-4B and eIF-4C together with ATP promote the binding of mRNA to the 40 S initiation complex. The association of the 40 S initiation complex with the 60 S ribosome subunit to form an 80 S initiation complex is mediated by the initiation factor eIF-5 and requires the hydrolysis of GTP. The factor eIF-1 gives a twofold overall stimulation of initiation complex formation. A model of the sequential steps in the assembly of the 80 S initiation complex in mammalian protein synthesis is presented. 相似文献

When a reticulocyte lysate, supplemented with hemin, was warmed at 42 °C, its protein-synthesizing activity was greatly decreased. This was accompanied by the reduced formation of the 40 S·Met-tRNAf initiation complex. This complex preformed at 34 °C, however, was stable and combined with added globin mRNA and the 60 S ribosomal subunit to form the 80 S complex at the elevated temperature. When the ribosome-free supernatant fraction of lysates was warmed at 42 °C with hemin and then added to the fresh lysate system, it inhibited protein synthesis by decreasing the formation of the 40 S complex. This decrease in protein synthesis by warmed lysates or warmed supernatant could be overcome by high concentrations of GTP and cyclic AMP. This effect of GTP and cyclic AMP was antagonized by ATP. The results indicate that the inactivation of protein synthesis by the lysate warmed at 42 °C is due to the formation of an inhibitor in the supernatant. The ribosomal KCl extract prepared from the lysate that had been warmed at 34 °C and then incubated at this temperature for protein synthesis supported protein synthesis by the KCl-washed ribosome at both 34 and 42 °C. On the contrary, the extract from lysates that had been warmed at 42 °C and then incubated at 34 °C could not support protein synthesis at 42 °C, although it was almost equally as promotive as the control extract in supporting protein synthesis at 34 °C. The results indicate that the factor which can protect protein synthesis against inactivation at 42 °C is itself inactivated in lysates warmed at 42 °C. However, the activity of this extract to support formation of the ternary complex with Met-tRNAf and GTP was not reduced. Native 40 S ribosomal subunits isolated from lysates that had been warmed at 42 °C and then incubated for protein synthesis indicated that the quantity of subunits of density 1.40 g/cm3 in a CsCl density gradient were decreased while those of density 1.49 g/cm3 were increased. The factor-promoted binding of Met-tRNAf to the 40 S subunit of lower density from the warmed and unwarmed lysates was equal, suggesting that the ribosomal subunit was not inactivated. These results were discussed in terms of the action of the inhibitor formed in the supernatant at 42 °C, which may inactivate a ribosomal factor essential for protein synthesis initiation. 相似文献

In insects, as in bacteria, the smaller (40 S) ribosomal subunit binds messenger RNA during initiation of protein synthesis. An 80 S ribosomal unit is formed by association of free 40 S and 60 S subunits. Formation of the complete initiation complex requires GTP, aminoacyl-tRNA, protein initiation factors and messenger RNA. The complex sediments as an 80 S band on sucrose gradient. Protein initiation factors are extracted from unwashed ribosomes and appear to be able to discriminate between messenger RNAs obtained from different stages of development. They promote formation of the 80 S complex only when messenger RNA is extracted from the same stage of development, providing a mechanism for control of protein synthesis by which ribosomes can select the messenger RNA to be translated. Two possibilities have been proposed to explain this phenomenon: (1) that a group of messenger RNAs from a given stage of development may have a specific sequence of nucleotides preceding the AUG codon. This sequence is recognized by a stage-specific element of the initiation machinery; (2) and or, the secondary structure of messenger RNA from a given stage of development may be specific and therefore recognized by a unique initiation factor. 相似文献

During translation, aminoacyl-tRNAs are delivered to the ribosome by specialized GTPases called translation factors. Here, we report the tRNA binding to the P-site of 40 S ribosomes by a novel GTP-independent factor eIF2D isolated from mammalian cells. The binding of tRNAiMet occurs after the AUG codon finds its position in the P-site of 40 S ribosomes, the situation that takes place during initiation complex formation on the hepatitis C virus internal ribosome entry site or on some other specific RNAs (leaderless mRNA and A-rich mRNAs with relaxed scanning dependence). Its activity in tRNA binding with 40 S subunits does not require the presence of the aminoacyl moiety. Moreover, the factor possesses the unique ability to deliver non-Met (elongator) tRNAs into the P-site of the 40 S subunit. The corresponding gene is found in all eukaryotes and includes an SUI1 domain present also in translation initiation factor eIF1. The versatility of translation initiation strategies in eukaryotes is discussed. 相似文献

A component of the reticulocyte cell membrane was found to inhibit protein synthesis severely in a reticulocyte lysate system. An investigation into the mode of action of the membrane inhibitor revealed the following facts. (1) The binding of the tertiary initiation complex (methionyl-tRNAfMet-Initiation Factor 2-GTP) to the 40S ribosomal subunit was unaffected by the membrane inhibitor. (2) The membrane component did not interfere with the binding of the 40S initiation complex to the AUG initiation codon and subsequent attachment of the 60S ribosomal subunit. (3) Elongation of the peptide chain, as assayed by peptidyl-puromycin formation, was markedly affected by the membrane inhibitor. Surprisingly, the membrane component caused a considerable increase in peptidyl-puromycin formation. (4) Reticulocyte ribosomes that had been reisolated by high-speed centrifugation, after preincubation with the membrane component, were found to be highly defective when assayed in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system. These results indicated that an extract of the reticulocyte cell membrane inhibited protein synthesis by interacting with the ribosome and thus interfered with the correct functions of the elongation stage of protein synthesis. The implications of this conclusion are discussed in the light of data showing that a highly purified preparation of the membrane inhibitor also displayed an endonucleolytic activity highly specific for 28S RNA. 相似文献

In neurodegenerative diseases, including pathologies with well-known causative alleles, genetic factors that modify severity or age of onset are not entirely understood. We recently documented the unexpected prevalence of transfer RNA (tRNA) mutants in the human population, including variants that cause amino acid mis-incorporation. We hypothesized that a mistranslating tRNA will exacerbate toxicity and modify the molecular pathology of Huntington''s disease-causing alleles. We characterized a tRNAPro mutant that mistranslates proline codons with alanine, and tRNASer mutants, including a tRNASerAGA G35A variant with a phenylalanine anticodon (tRNASerAAA) found in ∼2% of the population. The tRNAPro mutant caused synthetic toxicity with a deleterious huntingtin poly-glutamine (polyQ) allele in neuronal cells. The tRNASerAAA variant showed synthetic toxicity with proteasome inhibition but did not enhance toxicity of the huntingtin allele. Cells mistranslating phenylalanine or proline codons with serine had significantly reduced rates of protein synthesis. Mistranslating cells were slow but effective in forming insoluble polyQ aggregates, defective in protein and aggregate degradation, and resistant to the neuroprotective integrated stress response inhibitor (ISRIB). Our findings identify mistranslating tRNA variants as genetic factors that slow protein aggregation kinetics, inhibit aggregate clearance, and increase drug resistance in cellular models of neurodegenerative disease. 相似文献
