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

Cellular eukaryotic mRNAs (except organellar) contain at the 5' terminus the structure m7(5')Gppp(5')N (where N is any nucleotide), termed cap. Cap recognition by eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-4F plays an important role in regulating the overall rate of translation. eIF-4F is believed to mediate the melting of mRNA 5' end secondary structure and facilitate 43S ribosome binding to capped mRNAs. eIF-4E, the cap-binding subunit of eIF-4F, plays an important role in cell growth; its overexpression results in malignant transformation of rodent cells, and its phosphorylation is implicated in signal transduction pathways of mitogens and growth factors. The molecular mechanism by which eIF-4E transforms cells is not known. Here, we report that overexpression of eIF-4E facilitates the translation of mRNAs containing excessive secondary structure in their 5' non-coding region. This effect may represent one mechanism by which eIF-4E regulates cell growth and transforms cells in culture. 相似文献

Proliferation and cell cycle progression in response to growth factors require de novo protein synthesis. It has been proposed that binding of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E) to the inhibitory protein 4BP-1 blocks translation by preventing access of eIF-4G to the 5' cap of the mRNA. The signal for translation initiation is thought to involve phosphorylation of 4BP-1, which causes it to dissociate from eIF-4E and allows eIF-4G to localize to the 5' cap. It has been suggested that the ability of the macrolide antibiotic rapamycin to inhibit 4BP-1 phosphorylation is responsible for the potent antiproliferative property of this drug. We now show that rapamycin-resistant cells exhibited normal proliferation despite dephosphorylation of 4BP-1 that allows it to bind to eIF-4E. Moreover, despite rapamycin-induced dephosphorylation of 4BP-1, eIF-4E-eIF-4G complexes (eIF-4F) were still detected. In contrast, amino acid withdrawal, which caused a similar degree of 4BP-1 dephosphorylation, resulted in dissociation of the eIF-4E-eIF-4G complex. Thus, 4BP-1 dephosphorylation is not equivalent to eIF-4E inactivation and does not explain the antiproliferative property of rapamycin. 相似文献

The translation factor eIF-4E promotes tumor formation and cooperates with c-Myc in lymphomagenesis 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26

The mammalian target of rapamycin, mTOR, regulates cell growth and proliferation. Here we show that the initiation factor of translation (eIF-4E), a downstream effector of mTOR, has oncogenic effects in vivo and cooperates with c-Myc in B-cell lymphomagenesis. We found that c-Myc overrides eIF-4E-induced cellular senescence, whereas eIF-4E antagonizes c-Myc-dependent apoptosis in vivo. Our results implicate activation of eIF-4E as a key event in oncogenic transformation by phosphoinositide-3 kinase and Akt. 相似文献

Catalytic utilization of eIF-2 and mRNA binding proteins are limiting in lysates from vesicular stomatitis virus infected L cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Infection of mouse L cells by vesicular stomatitis virus results in the inhibition of cellular protein synthesis. Lysates prepared from these infected cells are impaired in their ability to translate endogenous or exogenous cellular and viral mRNAs. The ability of initiation factors from rabbit reticulocytes to stimulate protein synthesis in these lysates was examined. Preparations of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2) and the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) stimulated protein synthesis strongly in L cell lysates from infected cells but only slightly in lysates from mock-infected cells. Maximal stimulation was obtained when a fraction containing eukaryotic initiation factors 4B (eIF-4B) and 4F (eIF-4F) was also present. In lysates from infected cells, these initiation factors increased endogenous cellular mRNA translation on the average 2-fold. In contrast, endogenous viral mRNA translation was increased to a much greater extent: the M protein was stimulated 8-fold, NS 5-fold, N 2.5-fold, and G 12-fold. When fractions containing eIF-4B, eIF-4F, or eIF-4A were added to these lysates in the presence of eIF-2, all three stimulated translation. Fractions containing rabbit reticulocyte initiation factors eIF-3 and eIF-6 had no effect on translation in either lysate. The results suggest that lysates from infected L cells are defective in the catalytic utilization of eIF-2 and deficient in mRNA binding protein activity. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ) inhibits cellular proliferation, promotes differentiation, and stimulates the expression and secretion of the extracellular matrix adhesion molecules fibronectin and laminin and the colon-associated intercellular adhesion molecule carcinoembryonic antigen. This is collectively called the TGFβ-mediated adhesion response and occurs in the human colon cancer cell line Moser while the cell line KM12SM is relatively unresponsive to TGFβ. We have previously shown that TGFβ rapidly stimulates protein kinase C (PKC) phosphotransferase activity in the Moser cells and that the induction of the adhesion response (but not antiproliferation) by TGFβ is dependent on PKC. Because resistance to growth factors may be due to translational suppression and the translation initiation factor eIF-4E may alleviate translational suppression, we determined the effect of eIF-4E expression on the responses of Moser and KM12SM cells to TGFβ. Ectopic expression of eIF-4E in the TGFβ-responsive Moser cells enhanced the activation of PKC by TGFβ and the induction of the adhesion response, especially the secretion of adhesion molecules, but not the antiproliferative response. Ectopic expression of eIF-4E in the TGFβ-resistant KM12SM cells increased TGFβ stimulation of PKC and the TGFβ-mediated adhesion response (but not antiproliferation). The secretion of adhesion molecules was significantly increased by TGFβ. These results showed in these cells that eIF-4E promotes TGFβ-regulated adhesion but not antiproliferation in a PKC-dependent manner. 相似文献

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E), which possesses cap-binding activity, functions in the recruitment of mRNA to polysomes as part of a three-subunit complex, eIF-4F (cap-binding complex). eIF-4E is the least abundant of all translation initiation factors and a target of growth regulatory pathways. Recently, two human cDNAs encoding novel eIF-4E-binding proteins (4E-BPs) which function as repressors of cap-dependent translation have been cloned. Their interaction with eIF-4E is negatively regulated by phosphorylation in response to cell treatment with insulin or growth factors. The present study aimed to characterize the molecular interactions between eIF-4E and the other subunits of eIF-4F and to similarly characterize the molecular interactions between eIF-4E and the 4E-BPs. A 49-amino-acid region of eIF-4 gamma, located in the N-terminal side of the site of cleavage by Picornaviridae protease 2A, was found to be sufficient for interacting with eIF-4E. Analysis of deletion mutants in this region led to the identification of a 12-amino-acid sequence conserved between mammals and Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is critical for the interaction with eIF-4E. A similar motif is found in the amino acid sequence of the 4E-BPs, and point mutations in this motif abolish the interaction with eIF-4E. These results shed light on the mechanisms of eIF-4F assembly and on the translational regulation by insulin and growth factors. 相似文献

The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A (eIF-4A) possesses an in vitro helicase activity that allows the unwinding of double-stranded RNA. This activity is dependent on ATP hydrolysis and the presence of another translation initiation factor, eIF-4B. These two initiation factors are thought to unwind mRNA secondary structures in preparation for ribosome binding and initiation of translation. To further characterize the function of eIF-4A in cellular translation and its interaction with other elements of the translation machinery, we have isolated mutations in the TIF1 and TIF2 genes encoding eIF-4A in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We show that three highly conserved domains of the D-E-A-D protein family, encoding eIF-4A and other RNA helicases, are essential for protein function. Only in rare cases could we make a conservative substitution without affecting cell growth. The mutants show a clear correlation between their growth and in vivo translation rates. One mutation that results in a temperature-sensitive phenotype reveals an immediate decrease in translation activity following a shift to the nonpermissive temperature. These in vivo results confirm previous in vitro data demonstrating an absolute dependence of translation on the TIF1 and TIF2 gene products. 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 secretion of adhesion molecules was significantly increased by TGFβ. These results showed in these cells that eIF-4E promotes TGFβ-regulated adhesion but not antiproliferation in a PKC-dependent manner. 相似文献

Regulation of gene expression frequently involves translational controls that operate at the level of the initiation phase. Initiation of protein synthesis in eukaryotes is promoted by greater than 10 initiation factors. Important among these are initiation factors eIF-2 and eIF-2B, which stimulate methionyl-tRNA binding to 40S ribosomal subunits, and eIF-4A, eIF-4B and eIF-4F, which stimulate mRNA binding. Many of the initiation factors are phosphorylated in vivo, and phosphorylation has been shown to regulate rates of global protein synthesis. Phosphorylation of eIF-2 on its α-subunit results in repression of translation by interfering with the recycling of the factor. Phosphorylation of eIF-4F on its α- and γ-subunits activates this limiting initiation factor and stimulates protein synthesis. Other initiation factor activities may also be regulated by phosphorylation, but these have not yet been characterized in detail. Regulating the translational activity of the cell by phosphorylation appears to be important in virus-infected cells and in the control of cell proliferation. 相似文献

Recognition of the cap structure at the 5' end of mRNA is one of the first events in initiation of eukaryotic translation. This step is mediated by the translation initiation factor 4F (eIF-4F). In mammalian cells this factor is composed of the cap-binding protein eIF-4E, eIF-4A, and a 220-kDa polypeptide. In yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, eIF-4E is found associated with a 150-kDa protein (p150) and a 20-kDa protein (p20). The resulting protein complex is proposed to represent yeast eIF-4F. To study the functions of p150 and p20 and their interaction with eIF-4E, we disrupted the genes encoding p150 and p20 and analyzed the effects on protein complex formation and cell viability. Yeast cells with single and double disruptions of the genes encoding p150 and p20 are viable, but p150 single and p150/p20 double disruptions show a slow growth phenotype. Gel chromatography and immunoadsorption experiments with a monoclonal anti-eIF-4E antibody coupled to protein G-Sepharose show that both p150 and p20 bind independently of each other to eIF-4E. 相似文献

Translation initiation factor eIF-4E, which binds to the 5' cap structure of eukaryotic mRNAs, is believed to play an important role in the control of cell growth. Consistent with this, overexpression of eIF-4E in fibroblasts results in their malignant transformation. The activity of eIF-4E is thought to be regulated by phosphorylation on a single serine residue (Ser-53). Treatment of rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) strongly curtails their growth and causes their differentiation into cells that resemble sympathetic neurons. The present study shows that eIF-4E is rapidly phosphorylated in PC12 cells upon NGF treatment, resulting in a significant increase in the steady-state levels of the phosphorylated protein. In contrast, epidermal growth factor, a factor which elicits a weak mitogenic response in PC12 cells, did not significantly enhance eIF-4E phosphorylation. We also show that although the mitogen and tumor promoter, phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate, is able to induce phosphorylation of eIF-4E in PC12 cells, the NGF-mediated increase is primarily a protein kinase C-independent response. The NGF-induced enhancement of eIF-4E phosphorylation is abrogated in PC12 cells expressing a dominant inhibitory ras mutant (Ser-17 replaced by Asn), indicating that eIF-4E phosphorylation is dependent on a ras signalling pathway. As phosphorylation of eIF-4E effects translation initiation, these results suggest that NGF-mediated and ras-dependent eIF-4E phosphorylation may play a role in switching the pattern of gene expression during the differentiation of PC12 cells. 相似文献

A mammalian translation initiation factor can substitute for its yeast homologue in vivo 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The translation initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E) is involved in the recognition of the cap structure at the 5' end of eukaryotic mRNA and facilitates ribosome binding. Subsequently, additional initiation factors mediate ribosomal scanning of mRNA and initiator AUG recognition (Shatkin, A. J. (1985) Cell 40, 223-224; Rhoads, R. E. (1988) Trends Biochem. Sci. 13, 52-56; Edery, I., Pelletier, J., and Sonenberg, N. (1987) in Translational Regulation of Gene Expression (Ilan, J., ed) pp. 335-366, Plenum Publishing Corp., New York). We show here that initiation factor 4E is functionally conserved between the unicellular eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae and mammals. Although the amino acid identity of the factors from both species is limited to only 33%, mouse eIF-4E can substitute for yeast eIF-4E in vivo without major effects on cell viability, growth, and mating. This finding provides a starting point for new experimental strategies to investigate the structure-function relationship of eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF-4E. 相似文献

All eukaryotic cellular mRNAs (except organellar) possess at their 5' end the structure m7GpppX (where X is any nucleotide) termed the "cap." The cap structure facilitates the melting of mRNA 5' secondary structure through the action of initiation factor-4F (eIF-4F) in conjunction with eIF-4B. eIF-4F consists of three subunits of which one, eIF-4E (eIF-4E has recently been designated eIF-4 alpha according to the Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Biochemistry (NC-IUB) (Safer, B. (1989) Eur. J. Biochem. 186, 1-3)), contains the cap binding site. Several lines of evidence suggest that eIF-4E regulates the rate of translation initiation. Consequently, changes in cellular eIF-4E levels could control growth and differentiation. To investigate the possibility that eIF-4E expression is regulated, we studied the pattern of eIF-4E expression in several cell lines. Here, we show the existence of multiple mRNAs for eIF-4E that are generated by differential polyadenylation. In addition, we show tissue-specific differences in eIF-4E mRNA expression and utilization of polyadenylation sites. 相似文献

A cap-binding protein complex (Edery et al. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 11398–11403) is shown here to stimulate preferentially the translation of endogenous α versus β globin mRNA in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate. Several initiation factors (eIF-2, eIF-3, eIF-4A, eIF-4B, eIF-4C, eIF-4E and eIF-5) and elongation factor 1 were found to have no such discriminatory effect. These results are in contrast to several previous reports and demonstrate that the only factor capable of relieving translational competition between α and β globin mRNAs is the cap-binding protein complex. 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
