Erythroid expression of the heme-regulated eIF-2 alpha kinase. [PDF]
The role of heme-regulated eIF-2 alpha kinase (HRI) in the regulation of protein synthesis in rabbit reticulocytes is well documented. Inhibitors of protein synthesis with properties similar to those of HRI have been described in some nonerythroid cell types, but it has not yet been determined whether these eIF-2 alpha kinase activities are mediated by

We have reported previously that a 67-kDa polypeptide (p67) present in reticulocyte lysates protects the alpha-subunit of reticulocyte eukaryotic peptide chain initiation factor 2 (eIF-2) from phosphorylation by an eIF-2 kinase, heme-regulated protein synthesis inhibitor (Datta, B., Chakrabarti, D., Roy, A.L., and Gupta, N.

Sensory Denervation Modulates eIF-2 Alpha Kinase Expression in the Rabbit Lacrimal Gland [PDF]
To investigate the hypothesis that sensory denervation of the rabbit lacrimal gland results in dysregulation of protein synthesis. We used differential display of mRNA to identify genes associated with protein synthesis and secretion that may be altered in this situation.New Zealand white rabbits underwent unilateral sensory denervation by the ablation

Generation of a mutant form of protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-2 lacking the site of phosphorylation by eIF-2 kinases. [PDF]
The phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of initiation factor eIF-2 leads to an inhibition of protein synthesis in mammalian cells. We have performed site-directed mutagenesis on a cDNA encoding the alpha-subunit of human eIF-2 and have replaced the candidate sites of phosphorylation, Ser-48 and Ser-51, with alanines.

Inhibition of protein synthesis in rabbit reticulocyte lysates occurs in response to a variety of conditions including heme deficiency, addition of oxidants, and heat stress. The inhibition of translation is due to the activation of a heme-regulated protein kinase (HRI) which specifically phosphorylates the alpha-subunit of the eukaryotic initiation ...
