Interferon, double-stranded RNA, and protein phosphorylation.
We reported earlier that the addition of double-stranded RNA and ATP increases the endonuclease activity more in an extract of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells which have been treated with an interferon preparation than in a comparable extract from control cells. We report here that the addition of double-stranded RNA to an extract from Ehrlich ascites tumor cells which have been treated with an int...
متن کاملThe interferon-inducible double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase self-associates in vitro and in vivo.
The interferon-inducible double-stranded (ds) RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) exhibits antiviral, anticellular, and antitumor activities. The mechanisms of its enzymatic activation by autophosphorylation and of the observed transdominant inhibitory phenotype of enzymatically inactive mutants have invoked PKR dimerization. Here we present direct evidence in support of PKR-PKR interaction. We ...
متن کاملIdentification of double-stranded RNA-binding domains in the interferon-induced double-stranded RNA-activated p68 kinase.
The double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-binding domain of the human p68 kinase has been localized to the N-terminal half of the enzyme by using progressive deletion analysis and in vitro binding assays. To further define the domains responsible for binding to dsRNA, we cloned the mouse dsRNA-activated p65 kinase and used sequence alignment to identify conserved domains in the N-terminal region. Deletio...
متن کاملTranslational regulation by the interferon-induced double-stranded-RNA-activated 68-kDa protein kinase.
Activation of the interferon-inducible 68-kDa protein kinase (referred to as P68) by double-stranded RNA catalyzes phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eukaryotic protein synthesis initiation factor 2. We have analyzed the transient expression of mutant and wild-type kinase molecules in transfected COS cells to examine the effects of the kinase on gene expression in the absence of other inte...
متن کاملSynthetic double-stranded RNA stimulates the expression of interferon-inducible protein 10 in human mesothelial cells.
Interferon-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) is a chemokine playing an important role in the restriction of viral spread. A time- and dose-dependent increase in IP-10 is found upon activation of viral receptors expressed on mesothelial cells, which provides novel evidence for a link between viral infections and inflammation of serous membranes.
