4E-BP restrains eIF4E phosphorylation
In eukaryotes, mRNA translation is dependent on the cap-binding protein eIF4E. Through its simultaneous interaction with the mRNA cap structure and with the ribosome-associated eIF4G adaptor protein, eIF4E physically posits the ribosome at the 5' extremity of capped mRNA. eIF4E activity is regulated by phosphorylation on a unique site by the eIF4G-associated kinase MNK. eIF4E assembly with the ...
متن کاملTargeting the mTOR/4E-BP pathway in endometrial cancer.
Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic malignancy. Although it is highly treatable in the early stages of disease, therapies for advanced and recurrent disease are rarely curative. A molecular and genetic understanding of endometrial cancer involves the mTOR signaling pathway, an emerging target for treatment of type I disease (the most common presentation). Endometrial cancers show ...
متن کاملThe Parkinson's Disease Associated LRRK2 Exhibits Weaker In Vitro Phosphorylation of 4E-BP Compared to Autophosphorylation
Mutations in the gene encoding Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the most common cause of inherited Parkinson's disease (PD). LRRK2 is a multi-domain protein kinase containing a central catalytic core and a number of protein-protein interaction domains. An important step forward in the understanding of both the biology and the pathology of LRRK2 would be achieved by identification of its...
متن کاملCan One Suppress Subliminal Words?
Subliminal words cause behavioral priming, yet the depth of their processing remains debated. Using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), Nakamura et al. demonstrate in this issue of Neuron that this subliminal priming effect can be selectively disrupted. Distinct TMS sites disrupt priming in lexical decision and pronunciation tasks, suggesting that task set influences subliminal processing.
متن کاملSound can suppress visual perception
In a single modality, the percept of an input (e.g., voices of neighbors) is often suppressed by another (e.g., the sound of a car horn nearby) due to close interactions of neural responses to these inputs. Recent studies have also suggested that close interactions of neural responses could occur even across sensory modalities, especially for audio-visual interactions. However, direct behaviora...
