Combinatorial mRNA regulation: iron regulatory proteins and iso-iron-responsive elements (Iso-IREs).
Combinations of RNA elements (mRNA specific) with binding proteins give a wide range of responses to biological signals from iron, oxygen, NO, or growth factors. Combinatorial regulation of transcription to coordinate synthesis of groups of proteins is well known and is exemplified by steroid hormone-responsive genes (1). Combinatorial regulation of mRNA utilization to coordinate synthesis of g...
متن کاملIron-regulatory proteins, iron-responsive elements and ferritin mRNA translation.
Iron plays a central role in the metabolism of all cells. This is evident by its major contribution to many diverse functions, such as DNA replication, bacterial pathogenicity, photosynthesis, oxidative stress control and cell proliferation. In mammalian systems, control of intracellular iron homeostasis is largely due to posttranscriptional regulation of binding by iron-regulatory RNA-binding ...
متن کاملInternal loop/bulge and hairpin loop of the iron-responsive element of ferritin mRNA contribute to maximal iron regulatory protein 2 binding and translational regulation in the iso-iron-responsive element/iso-iron regulatory protein family.
Iron-responsive elements (IREs), a natural group of mRNA-specific sequences, bind iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) differentially and fold into hairpins [with a hexaloop (HL) CAGUGX] with helical distortions: an internal loop/bulge (IL/B) (UGC/C) or C-bulge. C-bulge iso-IREs bind IRP2 more poorly, as oligomers (n = 28-30), and have a weaker signal response in vivo. Two trans-loop GC base pairs o...
متن کاملMultiple determinants within iron-responsive elements dictate iron regulatory protein binding and regulatory hierarchy.
Iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) are iron-regulated RNA binding proteins that, along with iron-responsive elements (IREs), control the translation of a diverse set of mRNA with 5' IRE. Dysregulation of IRP action causes disease with etiology that may reflect differential control of IRE-containing mRNA. IREs are defined by a conserved stem-loop structure including a midstem bulge at C8 and a term...
متن کاملISO 9000: Outside the Iron Cage
Adopted by an increasing number of organizations around the world, the ISO 9000 standards have become a growing concern for more and more managers who are often compelled to adopt this system without really knowing its requirements and implications for employees. Though the effects of this standard on quality management and on performance improvement have been widely debated, there is little kn...
