Regulation of cytoplasmic stress granules by apoptosis-inducing factor.
Stress granules (SG) are dynamic cytoplasmic foci in which stalled translation initiation complexes accumulate. In conditions of acute cellular redox, stress cells manipulated to lose the expression of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) nucleate SG signature proteins (e.g. TIA-1, PABP1) more efficiently than AIF-positive controls. AIF also inhibited SG formation induced by the RasGAP-associated en...
متن کاملCytoplasmic hGle1A regulates stress granules by modulation of translation
When eukaryotic cells respond to stress, gene expression pathways change to selectively export and translate subsets of mRNAs. Translationally repressed mRNAs accumulate in cytoplasmic foci known as stress granules (SGs). SGs are in dynamic equilibrium with the translational machinery, but mechanisms controlling this are unclear. Gle1 is required for DEAD-box protein function during mRNA export...
متن کاملApoptosis-inducing factor
Although the seminal paper by Kerr, Wyllie and Currie (Kerr et al., 1972), who coined the word ‘apoptosis’, stated that only nuclei but not cytoplasmic organelles would undergo major modifications in the dying cell, recent evidence suggests that no cellular compartment is spared (Ferri and Kroemer, 2001). Mitochondria are particularly affected early during the apoptotic process, and they are no...
متن کاملvital functions of apoptosis inducing factor (aif)
in many models of programmed cell death, the mitochondrial protein aif translocates to the nucleus, where it induces the chromatin condensation and dna degradation. however, today it is well established that this flavoprotein is bifunctional. in addition to its lethal function in the nucleus of dying cells, aif plays a vital bioenergetic role in healthy ones by regulating mainly the activity of...
متن کاملApoptosis-inducing factor modulates mitochondrial oxidant stress in acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.
Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose causes liver injury in humans and mice. DNA fragmentation is a hallmark of APAP-induced cell death, and nuclear translocation of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) correlates with DNA fragmentation after APAP overdose. To test the hypothesis that AIF may be a critical mediator of APAP-induced cell death, fasted male AIF-deficient Harlequin (Hq) mice and respective wil...
