Protein synthesis is required for renal hypertrophy, and proximal tubular epithelial cells are an important cell type involved in this process. We examined IGF-I regulation of protein synthesis in murine proximal tubular epithelial (MCT) cells. We focused on initial events in protein translation and the signaling events involved. Translation of capped mRNAs is under the control of eukaryotic in...
Capsicum resistance to Pepper veinal mottle virus (PVMV) results from complementation between the pvr2 and pvr6 resistance genes: recessive alleles at these two loci are necessary for resistance, whereas any dominant allele confers susceptibility. In line with previous results showing that pvr2 resistance alleles encode mutated versions of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E)...
Canonical translation initiation in eukaryotes begins with the Eukaryotic Initiation Factor 4F (eIF4F) complex, made up of eIF4E, which recognizes the 7-methylguanosine cap of messenger RNA, and eIF4G, which serves as a scaffold to recruit other translation initiation factors that ultimately assemble the 80S ribosome. Many eukaryotes have secondary EIF4E genes with divergent properties. The mod...
Development of DNA aptamer screens that are both simple and informative can increase the success rate of DNA aptamer selection and induce greater adoption. High eIF4e levels contribute to malignancies, thus eIF4e presents itself as a valuable target for DNA aptamer-based inhibition screen. Here, we demonstrate a method for the rapid selection of looped DNA aptamers against eIF4e by combining ne...
Eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)4E is over-expressed in many types of cancer such as breast, head and neck, and lung. A consequence of increased levels of eIF4E is the preferential translation of pro-tumorigenic proteins (e.g. c-Myc and vascular endothelial growth factor) and as a result is regarded as a potential therapeutic target. In this work a novel phage display peptide has been isolate...
Translation initiation in eukaryotes is facilitated by the cap structure, m7GpppN (where N is any nucleotide). Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F (eIF4F) is a cap binding protein complex that consists of three subunits: eIF4A, eIF4E and eIF4G. eIF4G interacts directly with eIF4E and eIF4A. The binding site of eIF4E resides in the N-terminal third of eIF4G, while eIF4A and eIF3 binding ...
The underlying mechanisms of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) metastasis remain to be elucidated. The aim of this study is to investigate clinical significance and the expression of eIF4E, VEGF-C, MMP-2, and E-cadherin in the CRC metastasis. We investigated their expressions in 108 patients, analyzed the relationships between their expressions in CRC and evaluated the relationships between their expr...
Active-site mTOR inhibitors (asTORi) hold great promise for targeting dysregulated mTOR signaling in cancer. Because of the multifaceted nature of mTORC1 signaling, identification of reliable biomarkers for the sensitivity of tumors to asTORi is imperative for their clinical implementation. Here, we show that cancer cells acquire resistance to asTORi by downregulating eukaryotic translation ini...
The yeast translation factor eIF4G associates with both the cap-binding protein eIF4E and the poly(A)-binding protein Pab1p. Here we report that the two yeast eIF4G homologs, Tif4631p and Tif4632p, share a conserved Pab1p-binding site. This site is required for Pab1p and poly(A) tails to stimulate the in vitro translation of uncapped polyadenylylated mRNA, and the region encompassing it is requ...
Heat-shock protein 27 (HSP27/HSPB1) and its phosphorylation are implicated in multiple physiological and pathophysiological cell functions. Our previous study reported that unphosphorylated HSP27 has an inhibitory role in triiodothyronine (T(3))‑induced osteocalcin (OC) synthesis in osteoblasts. However, the mechanisms behind the HSP27‑mediated effects on osteoblasts remain to be clarified. In ...
