A novel heme-regulatory motif mediates heme-dependent degradation of the circadian factor period 2.
Although efforts have been made to identify circadian-controlled genes regulating cell cycle progression and cell death, little is known about the metabolic signals modulating circadian regulation of gene expression. We identify heme, an iron-containing prosthetic group, as a regulatory ligand controlling human Period-2 (hPer2) stability. Furthermore, we define a novel heme-regulatory motif wit...
متن کاملHeme induces ubiquitination and degradation of the transcription factor Bach1.
The transcription repressor Bach1 is a sensor and effector of heme that regulates the expression of heme oxygenase 1 and globin genes. Heme binds to Bach1, inhibiting its DNA binding activity and inducing its nuclear export. We found that hemin further induced the degradation of endogenous Bach1 in NIH 3T3 cells, murine embryonic fibroblasts, and murine erythroleukemia cells. In contrast, succi...
متن کاملInvolvement of heme in the degradation of iron-regulatory protein 2.
Iron-regulatory proteins (IRPs) recognize and bind to specific RNA structures called iron-responsive elements. Mediation of these binding interactions by iron and iron-containing compounds regulates several post-transcriptional events relevant to iron metabolism. There are two known IRPs, IRP1 and IRP2, both of which can respond to iron fluxes in the cell. There is ample evidence that IRP1 is c...
متن کاملThe role of endogenous heme synthesis and degradation domain cysteines in cellular iron-dependent degradation of IRP2.
Iron regulatory protein 2 (IRP2) is a mammalian cytosolic iron-sensing protein that regulates expression of iron metabolism proteins, including ferritin and transferrin receptor 1. IRP2 is ubiquitinated and degraded by the proteasome in iron-replete cells but is relatively stable in iron-depleted cells. Recent work has shown that IRP2 contains a unique 73-amino-acid domain that binds iron in vi...
متن کاملImpact of Heme and Heme Degradation Products on Vascular Diameter in Mouse Visual Cortex
BACKGROUND Delayed cerebral vasospasm is the most common cause of mortality and severe neurological impairment in patients who survive subarachnoid hemorrhage. Despite improvements in the field of diagnostic imaging, options for prevention and medical treatment-primarily with the calcium channel antagonist nimodipine or hemodynamic manipulations-are insufficient. Previous studies have suggested...
