Identification of a cis-acting dendritic targeting element in MAP2 mRNAs.
In neurons, a limited number of mRNAs have been identified in dendritic processes, whereas other transcripts are restricted to the cell soma. Here we have investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying extrasomatic localization of mRNAs encoding microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) in primary neuronal cultures. Vectors expressing recombinant mRNAs were introduced into hippocampal and sympa...
متن کاملCharacterization of the cis-acting element directing perinuclear localization of the metallothionein-1 mRNA.
Subcellular localization of mRNAs is a key mechanism for the synthesis of proteins close to their site of function. The mRNA encoding MT-1 (metallothionein-1) is localized in the perinuclear cytoplasm, where it is associated with cytoskeletal-bound polysomes. This localization relies on sequences present in the 3'-UTR (3'-untranslated region). The present study aims to characterize the cis-acti...
متن کاملCan ID Repetitive Elements Serve as Cis-acting Dendritic Targeting Elements? An In Vivo Study
Dendritic localization of mRNA/RNA involves interaction of cis-elements and trans-factors. Small, non-protein coding dendritic BC1 RNA is thought to regulate translation in dendritic microdomains. Following microinjections into cultured cells, BC1 RNA fused to larger mRNAs appeared to impart transport competence to these chimeras, and its 5' ID region was proposed as the cis-acting dendritic ta...
متن کاملVasopressin mRNA localization in nerve cells: characterization of cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors.
mRNA localization is a complex pathway. Besides mRNA sorting per se, this process includes aspects of regulated translation. It requires protein factors that interact with defined sequences (or sequence motifs) of the transcript, and the protein/RNA complexes are finally guided along the cytoskeleton to their ultimate destinations. The mRNA encoding the vasopressin (VP) precursor protein is loc...
متن کاملA cis-acting element in the coding region of cyclin B1 mRNA couples subcellular localization to translational timing.
Subcellular localization of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to correct sites and translational activation at appropriate timings are crucial for normal progression of various biological events. However, a molecular link between the spatial regulation and temporal regulation remains unresolved. In immature zebrafish oocytes, translationally repressed cyclin B1 mRNA is localized to the animal polar cytopl...
