Dominant Suppression of Inflammation via Targeted Mutation of the mRNA Destabilizing Protein Tristetraprolin
In myeloid cells, the mRNA-destabilizing protein tristetraprolin (TTP) is induced and extensively phosphorylated in response to LPS. To investigate the role of two specific phosphorylations, at serines 52 and 178, we created a mouse strain in which those residues were replaced by nonphosphorylatable alanine residues. The mutant form of TTP was constitutively degraded by the proteasome and there...
متن کاملTristetraprolin binding site atlas in the macrophage transcriptome reveals a switch for inflammation resolution
Precise regulation of mRNA decay is fundamental for robust yet not exaggerated inflammatory responses to pathogens. However, a global model integrating regulation and functional consequences of inflammation-associated mRNA decay remains to be established. Using time-resolved high-resolution RNA binding analysis of the mRNA-destabilizing protein tristetraprolin (TTP), an inflammation-limiting fa...
متن کاملGain-of-Function Mutation of Tristetraprolin Impairs Negative Feedback Control of Macrophages In Vitro yet Has Overwhelmingly Anti-Inflammatory Consequences In Vivo
The mRNA-destabilizing factor tristetraprolin (TTP) binds in a sequence-specific manner to the 3' untranslated regions of many proinflammatory mRNAs and recruits complexes of nucleases to promote rapid mRNA turnover. Mice lacking TTP develop a severe, spontaneous inflammatory syndrome characterized by the overexpression of tumor necrosis factor and other inflammatory mediators. However, TTP als...
متن کاملThe mRNA-destabilizing protein tristetraprolin is suppressed in many cancers, altering tumorigenic phenotypes and patient prognosis.
AU-rich element-binding proteins (ARE-BP) regulate the stability and/or translational efficiency of mRNAs containing cognate binding sites. Many targeted transcripts encode factors that control processes such as cell division, apoptosis, and angiogenesis, suggesting that dysregulated ARE-BP expression could dramatically influence oncogenic phenotypes. Using several approaches, we evaluated the ...
متن کاملTristetraprolin regulation of interleukin-22 production
Interleukin (IL)-22 is a STAT3-activating cytokine displaying characteristic AU-rich elements (ARE) in the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of its mRNA. This architecture suggests gene regulation by modulation of mRNA stability. Since related cytokines undergo post-transcriptional regulation by ARE-binding tristetraprolin (TTP), the role of this destabilizing protein in IL-22 production was inve...
