Nonsense-mediated mRNA Decay02:27

Nonsense-mediated mRNA Decay

11.6K
The Upf proteins that carry out nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) are found in all eukaryotic organisms, including humans. Each protein has an individual role, but they need to work in collaboration. Upf1 is an ATP-dependent RNA helicase that unwinds the RNA helix. Because Upf1 can unwind any RNA, Upf2 and Upf3 are required to help Upf1 discriminate between nonsense and normal mRNAs.
Usually, Upf3 binds to an Exon Junction Complex (EJC) at mRNA splice sites. If a ribosome fully translates the mRNA,...

Regulated mRNA Transport02:22

Regulated mRNA Transport

6.8K
In eukaryotes, transcription and translation are compartmentalized; an mRNA is first synthesized in the nucleus and then selectively transported to the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. Before transport, a pre-mRNA undergoes several steps of post-transcriptional modifications including splicing, 5' capping, and the addition of a poly-adenine tail. Various proteins bind to the pre-mRNA during these modifications. The mRNA transport takes place with the help of multiple proteins playing...

Regulation of Expression Occurs at Multiple Steps02:24

Regulation of Expression Occurs at Multiple Steps

25.5K
Gene expression can be regulated at almost every step from gene to protein. Transcription is the step that is most commonly regulated. This involves the binding of proteins to short regulatory sequences on the DNA. This association can either promote or inhibit the transcription of a gene associated with the respective sequence.
Transcription results in the generation of precursor (pre-mRNA) that consists of both exons and introns, which needs further processing before being translated to a...

Leaky Scanning02:28

Leaky Scanning

5.6K
During most eukaryotic translation processes, the small 40S ribosome subunit scans an mRNA from its 5' end until it encounters the first start AUG codon. The large 60S ribosomal subunit then joins the smaller one to initiate protein synthesis. The location of the translation initiation is largely determined by the nucleotides near the start codon as there may be multiple translation initiation sites present on the mRNA.  Marilyn Kozak discovered that the sequence RCCAUGG (where R...

Initiation of Translation02:33

Initiation of Translation

38.1K
Initiating translation is complex because it involves multiple molecules. Initiator tRNA, ribosomal subunits, and eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are all required to assemble on the initiation codon of mRNA. This process consists of several steps that are mediated by different eIFs.
First, the initiator tRNA must be selected from the pool of elongator tRNAs by eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2). The initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAi) has conserved sequence elements including modified bases at...

Neurochemical Transmission: Sites of Drug Action

3.3K
Neurochemical transmission, the conduction of electrical impulses between neurons mediated by neurotransmitters, plays a vital role in various physiological processes. Autonomic drugs exert their effects by modulating neurotransmission within the autonomic nervous system. For instance, drugs such as hemicholinium block the precursor uptake necessary for synthesizing acetylcholine, an essential autonomic neurotransmitter. Following synthesis, neurotransmitters are stored in vesicles. Metyrosine...

Resumen

Las neuronas sintetizan proteínas localmente utilizando ARN mensajeros (ARNm) y ribosomas. Este estudio revela que los ribosomas individuales (monosomas) traducen activamente muchas transcripciones neuronales, contribuyendo significativamente a la producción local de proteínas.

  • Biología celular

Sus antecedentes:

  • Las neuronas transportan ARN mensajeros (ARNm) y ribosomas a las sinapsis para la síntesis de proteínas locales.
  • Estudios anteriores sugirieron una síntesis de proteínas local limitada debido a un bajo número de polisomas en los procesos neuronales.

Principales métodos:

  • Se utilizó el perfilamiento del polisoma y la huella ribosómica en regiones sinápticas de roedores microdisecadas.
  • Se analizó la asociación del ARN mensajero (ARNm) con los ribosomas individuales (monosomas) y los ribosomas múltiples (polisomas).

Principales resultados:

  • Se identificó un número significativo de transcripciones dendríticas y/o axonales asociadas con los monosomas.
  • Se confirmó que estos monosomas neuronales están activamente involucrados en la síntesis de proteínas.
  • Se observó una regulación traslacional específica del compartimento para algunas transcripciones, con ARNm que prefieren los monosomas a menudo codificando proteínas sinápticas.

  • La traducción monosómica es un contribuyente clave al proteoma neuronal local.
  • Los procesos neuronales poseen una capacidad sustancial para la síntesis de proteínas locales a través de los monosomas.
  • Este hallazgo desafía las suposiciones anteriores sobre las limitaciones de la síntesis de proteínas locales en las neuronas.
