A novel RNA binding protein, SBP2, is required for the translation of mammalian selenoprotein mRNAs.
In eukaryotes, the decoding of the UGA codon as selenocysteine (Sec) requires a Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element in the 3' untranslated region of the mRNA. We purified a SECIS binding protein, SBP2, and obtained a cDNA clone that encodes this activity. SBP2 is a novel protein containing a putative RNA binding domain found in ribosomal proteins and a yeast suppressor of translation termina...
متن کاملA nuclear-encoded function essential for translation of the chloroplast psaB mRNA in chlamydomonas.
We report the analysis of a photosystem I-deficient mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, F15, that contains a mutation at the TAB1 (for translation of psaB mRNA) nuclear locus. Pulse labeling of chloroplast proteins revealed that the synthesis of the two photosystem I reaction center polypeptides PSAA and PSAB was undetectable in this mutant. The mRNA levels of these proteins were only moderate...
متن کاملYra1p, a conserved nuclear RNA-binding protein, interacts directly with Mex67p and is required for mRNA export.
Mex67p and Mtr2p constitute an essential mRNA export complex that interacts with poly(A)+ RNA and nuclear pore proteins. We have identified Yra1p, an intranuclear protein with in vitro RNA-RNA annealing activity, which directly binds to Mex67p. The complex between Yra1p and Mex67p was reconstituted in vitro and shown by UV-crosslinking to bind directly to RNA. Mutants of YRA1 are impaired in nu...
متن کاملRNA-binding protein IGF2BP2/IMP2 is required for laminin-β2 mRNA translation and is modulated by glucose concentration.
Laminin-β2 (LAMB2) is a critical component of the glomerular basement membrane as content of LAMB2 in part determines glomerular barrier permeability. Previously, we reported that high concentrations of glucose reduce expression of this laminin subunit at the translational level. The present studies were undertaken to further define systems that control Lamb2 translation and the effect of high ...
متن کاملDAZAP1, an RNA-binding protein required for development and spermatogenesis, can regulate mRNA translation.
DAZ-associated protein 1 (DAZAP1) is an RNA-binding protein required for normal growth, development, and fertility in mice. However, its molecular functions have not been elucidated. Here we find that Xenopus laevis and human DAZAP1, which are each expressed as short and long forms, act as mRNA-specific activators of translation in a manner that is sensitive to the number of binding sites prese...
