High impact information on EIF2S1

  • Since te PK 380--dependent phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha inhibits the initiation or protein synthesis, the possibility exists that the polyamines enhance protein synthesis by inhibiting the phosphorylation of eIF-2 alpha by PK 380 [1].
  • We have purified a soluble rabbit reticulocyte protein, previously termed the supernatant factor, that reverses the inhibition of protein synthesis in hemin-deficient lysate by promoting the inactivation of the hemin-controlled eIF-2 alpha kinase (HCR) mediating the effect of hemin deficiency [2].
  • Glycosylation of eukaryotic peptide chain initiation factor 2 (eIF-2)-associated 67-kDa polypeptide (p67) and its possible role in the inhibition of eIF-2 kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation of the eIF-2 alpha-subunit [3].
  • Hsc70 suppressed eIF-2alpha phosphorylation and maintained the guanine nucleotide exchange activity of eIF-2B in heme-deficient RRL and in hemin-supplemented RRL exposed to elevated temperatures (42 degrees C), denatured protein (reduced carboxymethylated bovine serum albumin, RCM-BSA), oxidized glutathione or Hg2+ [4].
  • Galactose-regulated expression of a full length bovine eIF-2 alpha cDNA in yeast resulted in the synthesis of a polypeptide of the predicted molecular mass (36 kDa) [5].
