ABSTRACT The target of rapamycin (TOR) plays an important role in memory formation in Aplysia californica. Here, we characterize one of the downstream targets of TOR, the eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) binding protein (4EBP) from Aplysia. Aplysia 4EBP contains the four critical phosphorylation sites regulated by TOR as well as an N-terminal RAIP motif and a C-terminal TOS site. Aplysia 4EBP was hypophosphorylated in synaptosomes, and serotonin addition caused a rapamycin-sensitive increase in 4EBP phosphorylation both in synaptosomes and in isolated neurites. Aplysia 4EBP was regulate

Abstract Mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a central integrator of nutrient and growth factor inputs that controls cell growth in all eukaryotes. Rapamycin and its analogs (rapalogs) have been approved for the treatment of relapsed mantle cell lymphoma. A large proportion of aggressive B-cell lymphoma patients, however, respond poorly to rapalogs. The second generation of mTOR inhibitors function as ATP-competitive inhibitors (TORi), directly targeting the mTOR catalytic site. TORis have been proven to be more effective than rapalogs in cancer treatment. However, the mechan

Abstract Stem cell factor (SCF)–induced activation of phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) is required for transient amplification of the erythroblast compartment. PI3K stimulates the activation of mTOR (target of rapamycin) and subsequent release of the cap-binding translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) from the 4E-binding protein 4EBP, which controls the recruitment of structured mRNAs to polysomes. Enhanced expression of eIF4E renders proliferation of erythroblasts independent of PI3K. To investigate which mRNAs are selectively recruited to polysomes, we compared SCF-dependent gene expression

Abstract Abstract 1815 Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a downstream serine/threonine kinase of the PI3K/Akt pathway that integrates signals from the tumor microenvironment. Mechanistically, mTOR operates in two distinct multi-protein complexes, TORC1 (Raptor) and TORC2 (Rictor). TORC1 leads to the phosphorylation of p70S6 kinase and 4E- BP1, while TORC2 regulates phosphorylation of Akt and other kinases. In multiple myeloma (MM), PI3K/Akt plays an essential role enhancing cell growth and survival and is activated by the loss of the tumor suppressor gene PTEN and by the bone marrow micr

Abstract:
Abstract Dysregulation of PI3K signaling is a common event in human cancer, but feedback inhibition of receptor kinase signaling and/or induction of PTEN translation by activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling reduces pathway output and tumor dependency. In some cancers, including the majority of endometrial carcinomas, these lesions coexist and cause synergistic hyperactivation of pathway output, particularly mTORC1 kinase signaling. Although this suggests that PI3K signaling is a driver of these endometrial cancers, standard inhibitors have had only marginal activity in patients with advanced disea

Aberrant activation of Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factors (RhoGEFs) is a chief mechanism driving abnormal activation of their RhoGTPase targets in cancer. Thus, small molecule inhibitor of RhoGEF activities can be used as a drug lead to treat leukemia and other malignancies. We have identified an active small molecule, IODVA1, in several xenograft mouse models of cancer including Ras-driven cancers. Here, we used cellular and mouse models of Ph+(BCR-ABL1) B-ALL to identify Vav3, the multi-domain tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent RacGEF as the target of the small molecule IODVA1. IODVA1 s

Abstract The eIF4E are a family of initiation factors that bind the mRNA 5′ cap, regulating the proteome and the cellular phenotype. eIF4E1 mediates global translation and its activity is controlled via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. mTOR down-regulation results in eIF4E1 sequestration into an inactive complex with the 4E binding proteins (4EBPs). The second member, eIF4E2, regulates the translatome during hypoxia. However, the exact function of the third member, eIF4E3, has remained elusive.

Abstract:
Most transcription in Trypanosoma brucei is constitutive and polycistronic. Consequently, the parasite relies on post-transcriptional mechanisms, especially affecting translation initiation and mRNA decay, to control gene expression both at steady-state and for adaptation to different environments. The parasite has six isoforms of the cap-binding protein EIF4E as well as five EIF4Gs. EIF4E1 does not bind to any EIF4G, instead being associated with a 4E-binding protein, 4EIP. 4EIP represses translation and reduces the stability of a reporter mRNA when artificially tethered to the 3’-UTR, whethe

Here we show that the cap-binding eIF4E-homologous protein 4EHP is an integral component of the miRNA-mediated silencing machinery.

Abstract The eIF4E-homologous protein (4EHP) is a translational repressor that competes with eIF4E for binding to the 5′-cap structure of specific mRNAs, to which it is recruited by protein factors such as the GRB10-interacting GYF (glycine-tyrosine-phenylalanine domain) proteins (GIGYF). Several experimental evidences suggest that GIGYF proteins are not merely facilitating 4EHP recruitment to transcripts but are actually required for the repressor activity of the complex. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is unknown. Here, we investigated the role of the uncharacterized Drosophila m
