Known host-parasite molecular interactions are widespread among parasite families, but these interactions have to be particularly large considering that viruses generally encode few proteins. Although some particular virus-host interactions are well described, no global study has yet shown multiple and simultaneous interactions in a host-parasite biological system. To prove that these multiple interactions occur in biological conditions, the complexes formed by a plant virus (rice yellow mottle virus) and the proteins of its natural host (rice) were extracted and purified from infected tissue sample. Remarkably mass spectrometry permitted the identification of a large number of proteins from the complexes that are involved in different functions not encoded by the virus but probably essential for its biological life cycle. This recruiting of proteins was strongly confirmed by the repetition of experiments using different pairs of virus-host and the use of high salt concentration to extract the complexes. We mainly identified proteins involved in plant defense, metabolism, translation, and protein synthesis and some proteins involved in transport. This study demonstrates that viruses are able to recruit many proteins from their hosts to ensure their development. Among different pairs of virus-host, similar protein functions were identified suggesting a particular importance of these proteins for viruses. The identification of particular paralog proteins among multigenic families suggests the high specificity of the recruiting for some protein functions. 相似文献

Cells use the interferon-induced, double-stranded-RNA-dependent protein kinase PKR as a defense against virus infections. Upon activation, PKR phosphorylates and thereby inactivates the protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-2, resulting in the cessation of protein synthesis. Viruses have evolved various strategies to counteract this cellular defense. In this paper, we show that simian virus 40 (SV40) large-T antigen can antagonize the translational inhibitory effect resulting from the activation of PKR in virus-infected cells. Unlike the situation with other virus-host cell interactions, SV40 large-T antigen does not block the activation of PKR, suggesting that SV40 counteracts the cellular antiviral response mediated by PKR at a step downstream of PKR activation. Mutational analysis of large-T antigen indicates that a domain located between amino acids 400 and 600 of large-T antigen is responsible for this function. These results define a novel translational regulatory function for the SV40 large-T antigen. 相似文献

Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, and their replication requires host cell functions. Although the size, composition, complexity, and functions encoded by their genomes are remarkably diverse, all viruses rely absolutely on the protein synthesis machinery of their host cells. Lacking their own translational apparatus, they must recruit cellular ribosomes in order to translate viral mRNAs and produce the protein products required for their replication. In addition, there are other constraints on viral protein production. Crucially, host innate defenses and stress responses capable of inactivating the translation machinery must be effectively neutralized. Furthermore, the limited coding capacity of the viral genome needs to be used optimally. These demands have resulted in complex interactions between virus and host that exploit ostensibly virus-specific mechanisms and, at the same time, illuminate the functioning of the cellular protein synthesis apparatus.The dependence of viruses on the host translation system imposes constraints that are central to virus biology and have led to specialized mechanisms and intricate regulatory interactions. Failure to translate viral mRNAs and to modulate host mRNA translation would have catastrophic effects on virus replication, spread, and evolution. Accordingly, a wide assortment of virus-encoded functions is dedicated to commandeering and controlling the cellular translation apparatus. Viral strategies to dominate the host translation machinery target the initiation, elongation, and termination steps and include mechanisms ranging from the manipulation of key eukaryotic translation factors to the evolution of specialized cis-acting elements that recruit ribosomes or modify genome-coding capacity. Because many of these strategies have likely been pirated from their hosts and because virus genetic systems can be manipulated with relative ease, the study of viruses has been a preeminent source of information on the mechanism and regulation of the protein synthesis machinery. In this article, we focus on select viruses that infect mammalian or plant cells and review the mechanisms they use to exploit and control the cellular protein synthesis machinery. 相似文献

《Seminars in Virology》1993,4(4):201-207
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

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

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

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

Initiation of poliovirus RNA translation by internal entry of ribosomes is believed to require the participation of trans-acting factors. The mechanism of action of these factors is poorly defined. The limiting amount of one of these factors, La protein, in rabbit reticulocyte lysates (RRL) has been postulated to partially explain the inefficient translation of poliovirus RNA in this system. To further characterize La activity in translation and to identify other potential limiting factors, we assayed the ability of La protein as well as purified initiation factors, eIF-2, guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), eIF-4A, eIF-4B, eIF-4F, and eIF-3, to stimulate the synthesis of P1, the capsid precursor protein, in poliovirus type 1 (Mahoney) RNA-programmed RRL. Of the proteins tested, only La, GEF, and to some extent eIF-2 stimulated the synthesis of P1. The enhanced translation of P1 in response to La occurred concomitantly with the inhibition of synthesis of most aberrant polypeptides, resulting from initiation in the middle of the genome. Deletion of the carboxy-terminal half (214 amino acids) of La did not decrease its binding to the poliovirus 5' untranslated region but abrogated the stimulatory and correcting activity in translation. In contrast to La, GEF and eIF-2 stimulated the overall translation and increased the synthesis of aberrant products as well as P1. Neither La, GEF, nor any other factor stimulated translation of encephalomyocarditis virus RNA in RRL. The implications of these findings for the mechanism of internal translation initiation on picornavirus RNAs are discussed. 相似文献

Complex multicellular organisms have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to prevent and control infection by pathogens. Among these mechanisms, the type I interferon or interferon alpha/beta system represents one of the first lines of defense against viral infections. Typically, viral infection induces the synthesis and secretion of interferon alpha/beta by the infected cell, which in turn activates signaling pathways leading to an antiviral state. As a counter measure, many viruses have developed intriguing mechanisms to evade the interferon alpha/beta system of the host. In this review, we will summarize recent research developments in this interesting field of virus-host cell interactions. 相似文献

The mechanism by which internal ribosomal binding on the picornaviral RNA takes place is still not known. An important role has been suggested for eukaryotic initiation factors eIF-4A, eIF-4B, as well as for some not yet defined trans-acting factors like p52 for poliovirus and p58 for encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV). In this paper we describe the competition between the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of EMCV and globin mRNA for the translational apparatus in rabbit reticulocyte lysates and show that the factor that is competed for is eIF-2/2B. The EMC 5' UTR is a very strong inhibitor of globin synthesis in the rabbit reticulocyte lysate because of a 30-fold higher eIF-2/2B binding capacity. Mutations 100 to 140 nucleotides upstream of the initiation codon led to a decreased efficiency to initiate translation and to a decreased ability to inhibit globin mRNA translation. The results suggest an important role for eIF-2/2B binding in EMC RNA translation and therefore in internal initiation. 相似文献

Translational control was studied in extracts of Lytechinus pictus eggs and zygotes. We showed that neither mRNA nor initiation factors alone limit translation in these lysates; rather they are together rate limiting. Added globin mRNA was translated in egg and zygote lysates but overall protein synthesis did not increase significantly as the added RNA competed with the endogenous message. The lysates mimicked the in vivo response, since microinjection of globin mRNA into L. pictus eggs similarly competed with endogenous mRNAs. A number of translational components were used to determine if they would stimulate protein synthesis in these lysates. The addition of globin polyribosomes increased the level of protein synthesis. The majority of this increase was due to reinitiation of the globin mRNA, and under these conditions the level of endogenous protein synthesis in both egg and zygote extracts did not change. The addition of crude initiation factors alone did not appreciably alter the rate of protein synthesis in the egg lysates. However, in the presence of added mRNA, these initiation factors stimulated translation two- to fourfold. Of all the initiation factors tested, only the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF, eIF-2B, RF) significantly increased protein synthesis when globin mRNA was present. The addition of an unfractionated initiation factor preparation further stimulated protein synthesis in the presence of added GEF and mRNA, suggesting that a component other than mRNA and GEF was also limiting in these egg lysates. Other initiation factors, including eIF-2, eIF-4A, eIF-4B, and eIF-4F, did not substitute for the component in the unfractionated initiation factor preparation. We propose that alkalinization of the cytoplasm and the subsequent activation of initiation factors and mRNAs contribute to the large stimulation of protein synthesis in echinoid eggs after fertilization. Furthermore, we discuss the possibility that the increase in NADPH at the expense of NAD+, which occurs within 3 min after fertilization, may lead to the activation of GEF. 相似文献

Recessive resistance genes against plant viruses have been recognized for a long time but their molecular nature has only recently been linked to components of the eukaryotic translation initiation complex. Translation initiation factors, and particularly the eIF4E and eIF4G protein families, were found to be essential determinants in the outcome of RNA virus infections. Viruses affected by these genes belong mainly to potyviruses; natural viral resistance mechanisms as well as mutagenesis analysis in Arabidopsis all converged to identify the same set of translation initiation factors. Their role in plant resistance against RNA viruses remains to be elucidated. Although the interaction with the protein synthesis machinery is probably a key element for successful RNA virus infection, other possible mechanisms will also be discussed. 相似文献

Interferon resistance of vaccinia virus is mediated by specific inhibition of phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2 alpha) by the double-stranded-RNA-activated (DAI) protein kinase. Vaccinia virus encodes a homolog of eIF-2 alpha, K3L, the deletion of which renders the virus sensitive to interferon treatment. We have studied the mechanism by which this protein product elicits interferon resistance in a transient DNA transfection system designed to evaluate regulators of eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation. In this system, translation of a reporter gene mRNA is inefficient because of eIF-2 phosphorylation mediated by the DAI protein kinase. Cotransfection of the K3L gene enhances translation of the reporter mRNA in this system. The K3L protein inhibits eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation and DAI kinase activation, apparently without being phosphorylated itself. Inhibition of protein synthesis, elicited by expression of a mutant Ser-51----Asp eIF-2 alpha designed to mimic a phosphorylated serine, is not relieved by the presence of K3L, suggesting that K3L cannot bypass a block imposed by eIF-2 alpha phosphorylation. The results suggest that K3L acts as a decoy of eIF-2 alpha to inhibit DAI kinase autophosphorylation and activation. Another vaccinia virus gene product, K1L, which is required for growth of vaccinia virus on human cells, does not enhance translation in this assay. 相似文献

Overview: phosphorylation and translation control 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
J W Hershey 《Enzyme》1990,44(1-4):17-27
Protein synthesis is controlled by the phosphorylation of proteins comprising the translational apparatus. At least 12 initiation factor polypeptides, 3 elongation factors and a ribosomal protein are implicated. Stimulation of translation correlates with enhanced phosphorylation of eIF-4F, eIF-4B, eIF-2B, eIF-3 and ribosomal protein S6, whereas inhibition correlates with phosphorylation of eEF-2 and the alpha-subunit of eIF-2. Strong evidence for regulatory roles exists for eIF-2, eIF-4F and eEF-2, whereas changes in other factor activities due to phosphorylation remain to be demonstrated. Regulation of the specific activity of the translational apparatus by phosphorylation appears to be a general mechanism for the control of rates of global protein synthesis, and may also play a role in modulating the translation of specific mRNAs. 相似文献

Studies on hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication have been greatly advanced by the development of cell culture models for HCV known as replicon systems. The prototype replicon consists of a subgenomic HCV RNA in which the HCV structural region is replaced by the neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPTII) gene, and translation of the HCV proteins NS3 to NS5 is directed by the encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) internal ribosome entry site (IRES). The interferon (IFN)-inducible protein kinase PKR plays an important role in cell defense against virus infection by impairing protein synthesis as a result of eIF-2alpha phosphorylation. Here, we show that expression of the viral nonstructural (NS) and PKR proteins and eIF-2alpha phosphorylation are all variably regulated in proliferating replicon Huh7 cells. In proliferating cells, induction of PKR protein by IFN-alpha is inversely proportional to viral RNA replication and NS protein expression, whereas eIF-2alpha phosphorylation is induced by IFN-alpha in proliferating but not in serum-starved replicon cells. The role of PKR and eIF-2alpha phosphorylation was further addressed in transient-expression assays in Huh7 cells. These experiments demonstrated that activation of PKR results in the inhibition of EMCV IRES-driven NS protein synthesis from the subgenomic viral clone through mechanisms that are independent of eIF-2alpha phosphorylation. Unlike NS proteins, HCV IRES-driven NPTII protein synthesis from the subgenomic clone was resistant to PKR activation. Interestingly, activation of PKR could induce HCV IRES-dependent mRNA translation from dicistronic constructs, but this stimulatory effect was mitigated by the presence of the viral 3' untranslated region. Thus, PKR may assume multiple roles in modulating HCV replication and protein synthesis, and tight control of PKR activity may play an important role in maintaining virus replication and allowing infection to evade the host's IFN system. 相似文献

What Happens Inside Lentivirus or Influenza Virus Infected Cells: Insights into Regulation of Cellular and Viral Protein Synthesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Efficient manipulation of the regulatory mechanisms controlling host cell gene expression provides the means for productive infection by animal viruses. Upon infecting the host cell, viruses must: (i) bypass the cellular antiviral defense mechanisms to prevent the translational blocks imposed by the interferon pathway; and (ii) effectively “hijack” the host protein synthetic machinery into mass production of virion protein components. The multicomponent regulatory nature of cellular gene expression has provided the means of selecting for a diverse range of mechanisms utilized by animal viruses to ensure that replication efficiency is maintained throughout the virus life cycle. One important research component of the careful examination of gene regulation is those studies that focus on elucidating the mechanisms by which viruses control mRNA translation during host cell infection. Much of the work in our laboratory has focused on elucidating the strategies by which human immunodeficiency virus type 1 and influenza virus regulate protein synthesis during infection. Here we describe the ways in which these two distinctly different RNA viruses ensure the selective and efficient translation of their viral mRNAs in infected cells. These strategies include circumvention of the deleterious effects associated with activation of the interferon-induced protein kinase, PKR. Herein we describe our methodologies designed to elucidate the translational regulation in cells infected by these viruses. We conclude with a brief summary of new directions, utilizing these methods, taken toward understanding the translational control mechanisms imposed by these viral systems, and how our studies of virally infected cells have allowed us to identify growth-regulating components of normal, uninfected cells. 相似文献
