Protein Homeostasis: A Degrading Role for Int6/eIF3e
نویسندگان
چکیده
Similarities between the three related "PCI" complexes--eIF3, the COP9 signalosome and the proteasome lid--have hinted at novel pathways controlling protein homeostasis. Recent experiments with fission yeast have begun to weigh in with genetic evidence.

The Bad, the Good and eIF3e/INT6.
Recent research on translation and protein synthesis in several pathologies, including cancer, peripheral artery disease, and wound healing, demonstrates the key role played by translational factors in tumorigenic and angiogenic processes. This review will focus on one specific translational factor, eIF3e also called INT6, the "e" subunit of the translation initiation factor eIF3. INT6/eIF3e ha...
متن کاملInt6/eIF3e Is Essential for Proliferation and Survival of Human Glioblastoma Cells
Glioblastomas (GBM) are very aggressive and malignant brain tumors, with frequent relapses despite an appropriate treatment combining surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In GBM, hypoxia is a characteristic feature and activation of Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIF-1α and HIF-2α) has been associated with resistance to anti-cancer therapeutics. Int6, also named eIF3e, is the "e" subunit of the ...
متن کاملMolecular and Cellular Pathobiology INT6/EIF3E Interacts with ATM and Is Required for Proper Execution of the DNA Damage Response in Human Cells
Altered expression of the INT6 gene, encoding the e subunit of the translational initiation factor eIF3, occurs in human breast cancers, but how INT6 relates to carcinogenesis remains unestablished. Here, we show that INT6 is involved in the DNA damage response. INT6 was required for cell survival following g-irradiation and G2–M checkpoint control. RNA interference–mediated silencing of INT6 r...

متن کاملThe INT6 Cancer Gene and MEK Signaling Pathways Converge during Zebrafish Development
BACKGROUND Int-6 (integration site 6) was identified as an oncogene in a screen of tumorigenic mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) insertions. INT6 expression is altered in human cancers, but the precise role of disrupted INT6 in tumorigenesis remains unclear, and an animal model to study Int-6 physiological function has been lacking. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here, we create an in vivo model of Int6 f...
