Localization of ERK/MAP kinase is regulated by the alphaherpesvirus tegument protein Us2.
Many different viruses activate the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling pathway during infection and require ERK activation for the efficient execution of their replication programs. Despite these findings, no virus-encoded proteins have been identified that directly modulate ERK activities. In an effort to determine the function of a con...
متن کاملThe pseudorabies virus Us2 protein, a virion tegument component, is prenylated in infected cells.
The Us2 gene is conserved among alphaherpesviruses, but its function is not known. We demonstrate here that the pseudorabies virus (PRV) Us2 protein is synthesized early after infection and localizes to cytoplasmic vesicles and to the plasma membrane, despite the lack of a recognizable signal sequence or membrane-spanning domain. Us2 protein is also packaged as part of the tegument of mature vi...
متن کاملNuclear localization of protein kinase U-alpha is regulated by 14-3-3.
14-3-3 proteins are intracellular, dimeric molecules that bind to and modify the activity of several signaling proteins. We used human 14-3-3zeta as a bait in the yeast two-hybrid system to screen a murine embryonic cDNA library. One interacting clone was found to encode the carboxyl terminus of a putative protein kinase. The coding sequence of the human form (protein kinase Ualpha, PKUalpha) o...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of cardiac protein kinase B is regulated by palmitate.
In this study isolated perfused working rat hearts were used to investigate the role of palmitate-regulated protein kinase B (PKB) phosphorylation on glucose metabolism. Rat hearts were perfused aerobically in working mode with 11 mM glucose and either 100 microU/ml insulin or 100 microU/ml insulin and 1.2 mM palmitate. PKB activity and phosphorylation state were reduced in the presence of 1.2 ...
متن کاملSelective degradation of mRNAs by the HSV host shutoff RNase is regulated by the UL47 tegument protein.
Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) encodes an endoribonuclease that is responsible for the shutoff of host protein synthesis [virion host shutoff (VHS)-RNase]. The VHS-RNase released into cells during infection targets differentially four classes of mRNAs. Thus, (a) VHS-RNase degrades stable cellular mRNAs and α (immediate early) viral mRNAs; (b) it stabilizes host stress response mRNAs after deade...
