Inhibition of eEF2K synergizes with glutaminase inhibitors or 4EBP1 depletion to suppress growth of triple-negative breast cancer cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase, eEF2K, which restricts protein translation elongation, has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for diverse types of malignancies including triple negative breast cancer (TNBC).

Glucosamine-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress attenuates apolipoprotein B100 synthesis via PERK signaling

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Glucosamine impairs hepatic apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) production by inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and enhancing cotranslational and posttranslational apoB100 degradation (Qiu, W., R. K. Avramoglu, A. C. Rutledge, J. Tsai, and K.

OseIF3h Regulates Plant Growth and Pollen Development at Translational Level Presumably through Interaction with OsMTA2

open access: yesPlants, 2021
The initiation stage of protein biosynthesis is a sophisticated process tightly regulated by numerous initiation factors and their associated components. However, the mechanism underlying translation initiation has not been completely understood in rice.

The use of [14C]eukaryotic initiation factor 2 to measure the endogenous pool size of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 in rabbit reticulocyte lysate.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1979
[14C]Eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2), obtained by reductive methylation of the purified initiation factor, was shown to be active in the unfractionated reticulocyte lysate. This allowed a direct measurement of the endogenous pool size of eIF-2 in rabbit reticulocyte lysate according to the principle of isotope dilution.

Translation elongation can control translation initiation on eukaryotic mRNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Synonymous codons encode the same amino acid, but differ in other biophysical properties. The evolutionary selection of codons whose properties are optimal for a cell generates the phenomenon of codon bias.

Unanticipated antigens: translation initiation at CUG with leucine.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2004
Major histocompatibility class I molecules display tens of thousands of peptides on the cell surface for immune surveillance by T cells. The peptide repertoire represents virtually all cellular translation products, and can thus reveal a foreign presence

Reactivity of vertebrate-directed phospho-eEF2 antibody against the Caenorhabditis elegans orthologue phospho-EEF-2 [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2015
Eukaryotic protein translation is divided into three mains stages: initiation, elongation and termination. Regulation of this process occurs at the initiation and elongation step.

Transglutaminase 2 mediates hypoxia-induced selective mRNA translation via polyamination of 4EBPs

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2020
This study highlights the role of transglutaminase 2 in selective mRNA translation of hypoxic cancer cells by polyamination-dependent modulation of 4EBPs, providing a target for cancer treatment.

Data on the effects of eIF6 downmodulation on the proportions of innate and adaptive immune system cell subpopulations and on thymocyte maturation

open access: yesData in Brief, 2017
The data described in this article are related to “High levels of eukaryotic Initiation Factor 6 (eIF6) are required for immune system homeostasis and for steering the glycolytic flux of TCR-stimulated CD4+ T cells in both mice and humans” (Manfrini et ...
