The protein responsible for the repeating structure of cytoplasmic poly(A)-ribonucleoprotein
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 75,000-dalton protein has been purified approximately 1,000-fold from rat liver, based on its capacity to organize poly(A) in a 27-residue repeating structure. This protein may be identified with the major polypeptide component of cytoplasmic poly(A)-ribonucleoprotein (RNP) previously described. The poly(A)-organizing activity of the protein is detected only in cytoplasmic fractions. Upon nuclease digestion of the 75,000-dalton protein-poly(A) complex, monomers, and higher multimers of RNP subunits can be resolved in a sucrose gradient. The sedimentation rate of the monomer is compatible with a composition of one 75,000-dalton protein molecule and one 27-residue segment of poly(A).

متن کاملOptimized Cytoplasmic Expression of Water Soluble Human Thrombopoietin in Modified Bacterial Strain
Background: Thrombopoietin is a glycoprotein produced by liver and kidney which is responsible for regulating the platelet production. Thrombopoietin is a key ligand with impact on regulating the self-renewal of Hematopoietic stem cells and the regulation of Megakaryocytes progenitors. Previous studies have indicated that only N-terminal domain of this protein has receptor promoting ability. Th...
متن کاملOpposing polymerase-deadenylase activities regulate cytoplasmic polyadenylation.
Cytoplasmic polyadenylation is one mechanism that regulates translation in early animal development. In Xenopus oocytes, polyadenylation of dormant mRNAs, including cyclin B1, is controlled by the cis-acting cytoplasmic polyadenylation element (CPE) and hexanucleotide AAUAAA through associations with CPEB and CPSF, respectively. Previously, we demonstrated that the scaffold protein symplekin co...
متن کاملTrapping of messenger RNA by Fragile X Mental Retardation protein into cytoplasmic granules induces translation repression.
Absence of Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP), an RNA-binding protein, is responsible for the Fragile X syndrome, the most common form of inherited mental retardation. FMRP is a cytoplasmic protein associated with mRNP complexes containing poly(A)+mRNA. As a step towards understanding FMRP function(s), we have established the immortal STEK Fmr1 KO cell line and showed by transfection a...
