Multiple mRNAs encode the murine translation initiation factor eIF-4E.
All eukaryotic cellular mRNAs (except organellar) possess at their 5' end the structure m7GpppX (where X is any nucleotide) termed the "cap." The cap structure facilitates the melting of mRNA 5' secondary structure through the action of initiation factor-4F (eIF-4F) in conjunction with eIF-4B. eIF-4F consists of three subunits of which one, eIF-4E (eIF-4E has recently been designated eIF-4 alph...
متن کاملDifferential contribution of the m7G-cap to the 5′ end-dependent translation initiation of mammalian mRNAs
Many mammalian mRNAs possess long 5' UTRs with numerous stem-loop structures. For some of them, the presence of Internal Ribosome Entry Sites (IRESes) was suggested to explain their significant activity, especially when cap-dependent translation is compromised. To test this hypothesis, we have compared the translation initiation efficiencies of some cellular 5' UTRs reported to have IRES-activi...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of protein synthesis initiation factors eIF-1, eIF-4C, eIF-4D, and eIF-5 from rabbit reticulocytes.
Protein synthesis initiation factors eIF-1, eIF-4C, eIF4D, and eIF-5 were isolated and purified from rabbit reticulocyte lysates. Crude initiation factors from the high salt ribosomal extract were separated by ammonium sulfate precipitation into Fraction A (0 to 40% saturation) and Fraction BC (40 to 70% saturation). Fraction BC was separated by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 into two fractio...
متن کاملTranslation Initiation on Mammalian mRNAs with Structured 5′UTRs Requires DExH-Box Protein DHX29
Eukaryotic protein synthesis begins with assembly of 48S initiation complexes at the initiation codon of mRNA, which requires at least seven initiation factors (eIFs). First, 43S preinitiation complexes comprising 40S ribosomal subunits, eIFs 3, 2, 1, and 1A, and tRNA(Met)(i) attach to the 5'-proximal region of mRNA and then scan along the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) to the initiation codon....
متن کاملInitiation factor eIF-4B (IF-M3)-dependent recognition and translation of capped versus uncapped eukaryotic mRNAs.
Translation of capped and uncapped eukaryotic mRNAs is stimulated by addition of eIF-4B to an mRNA-dependent reticulocyte lysate system. m7G5 ppp inhibits translation of capped but not uncapped mRNAs and reduces translation of capped vaccinia mRNA to the level obtained with uncapped vaccinia mRNA. Exogenous eIF-4B but no other initiation factor reverses inhibition of protein synthesis by m7G5'p...
