Description |
Delayed translational silencing of ceruloplasmin (Cp) mRNA by gamma-interferon (IFN-gamma) is directed by a structural element in its 3' untranslated region (Mazumder, 1999).
Translational silencing requires the binding of a cytosolic inhibitor to the Cp 3'UTR and all essential elements of mRNA circularization, i.e. eukaryotic initiation factor 4G, poly-A binding protein and poly-A tail (Mazumder, 2001;?
Mazumder, Seshadri, Fox, 2003).
The 29-nt structural element, denoted as IFN-gamma-activated inhibitor of translation (GAIT), consisting of a 5-nt terminal loop, a weak 3-bp helix, an asymmetric internal bulge and a proximal 6-bp helix, has been experimentally demonstrated to be sufficient for translational silencing both in vitro and in vivo (Sampath, 2003). A similar element can be found in sheep Cp but not in rodents. The GAIT element-binding complex consists of at least four proteins: Glutamyl-prolyl RNA synthetase, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, NS1-associated protein 1, and ribosomal protein L13a (Mazumder, Sampath et al, 2003; Sampath, 2004).
