Signaling Pathways for Translation: Stress, Calcium, and by Simon J. Morley (auth.), Professor Dr. Robert E. Rhoads

By Simon J. Morley (auth.), Professor Dr. Robert E. Rhoads (eds.)

This quantity offers the reaction of the eukaryotic translational equipment to mobile pressure and apoptosis, together with kinases activated via either the ERK and stress-activated pathways. It extra explores brokers that inhibit protein synthesis, calcium and the immunosuppressant rapamycin. Six chapters written through top specialists within the box supply either new information and entire literature experiences. either the rules of initiation and elongation are mentioned, and the mechanisms of apoptosis are regarding adjustments within the protein synthesis machinery.

GCN2 is an eIF2a kinase that is activated upon amino acid starvation of yeast ceIls, leading to the specific expression of GCN4, a transcriptional activator of factors involved in amino acid synthesis. 1999; Sood et al. 2000). So far, the data suggest that this kinase is switched on only upon amino acid starvation, and a possible role in the stress-induced phosphorylation of eIF2a seems unlikely. PEK, or PERK (PKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase), has recently been identified as an endoplasmic reticulum resident eIF2a kinase that is specifically activated by ER stresses, such as treatment of cells with thapsigargin and tunicamycin.
