Inhibition of protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates by trichodermin.
1. The effect of trichodermin as an inhibitor of eukaryotic protein synthesis was studied in a reticulocyte cell-free system. 2. Trichodermin at a concentration of 25 mug/ml inhibits total protein synthesis instantaneously and stabilizes polyribosome profiles. Conversely, at a concentration of 0.25 mug/ml the drug inhibits total protein synthesis by only 70-75% and allows 30-35% breakdown of th...
متن کاملThe characteristics of inhibition of protein synthesis by double-stranded ribonucleic acid in reticulocyte lysates.
All types of double-stranded RNA (DSRNA) tested inhibit protein synthesis in rabbit reticulocyte lysates. The inhibition is characterized by its strongly biphasic kinetics, and can be enhanced by preincubation of the lysate with dsRNA in the absence of protein synthesis. Only properly and extensively matched dsRNA (greater than about 50 base pairs) has this property; no form of DNA, single-stra...
متن کاملNo effect of cAMP on protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates.
The results of a series of experiments are interpreted to indicate that protein synthesis in reticulocyte lysates is not affected by the reticulocyte cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The catalytic subunit of this enzyme was isolated to apparent homogeneity. Also, the protein inhibitor of this protein kinase was isolated from muscle. Neither physiological concentrations of cAMP nor any of these pr...
متن کاملProtein synthesis in rabbit reticulocytes: a study of the mechanism of action of the protein factor RF that reverses protein synthesis inhibition in heme-deficient reticulocyte lysates.
A eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2)-ancillary protein factor Co-eIF-2 promotes displacement of GDP from eIF-2 X GDP and facilitates ternary complex (Met-tRNAf X eIF-2 X GTP) formation in the presence of Mg2+. Heme-regulated protein synthesis inhibitor, HRI, phosphorylates the alpha-subunit of eIF-2 and thus inhibits ternary complex formation as Co-eIF-2 does not displace GDP from eIF-2 alp...
متن کاملProtein synthesis in rabbit reticulocytes: characteristics of the protein factor RF that reverses inhibition of protein synthesis in heme-deficient reticulocyte lysates.
During heme deficiency in reticulocyte lysates, the heme-regulated translational inhibitor of protein synthesis (HRI) is activated and shuts off protein synthesis. In partial reactions, HRI phosphorylates the Mr 38,000 subunit (alpha subunit) of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2), which forms a ternary complex, Met-tRNAf X eIF-2 X GTP. The eIF-2 alpha (P) thus formed is not recognized by tw...
