Expression of mutant eukaryotic initiation factor 2 alpha subunit ( eIF 2 alpha ) reduces inhibition of guanine nucleotide exchange activity of eIF 2B mediated by eIF 2 alpha phosphorylation . ^^^ The inhibition of protein synthesis that occurs upon phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 ( eIF 2 alpha ) at serine 51 correlates with reduced guanine nucleotide exchange activity of eIF 2B in vivo and inhibition of eIF 2B activity in vitro , although it is not known if phosphorylation is the cause of the reduced eIF 2B activity in vivo . ^^^ To characterize the importance of eIF 2 alpha phosphorylation in the regulation of eIF 2B activity , we studied the overexpression of mutant eIF 2 alpha subunits in which serine 48 or 51 was replaced by an alanine ( 48A or 51A mutant ) . ^^^ In this study , we show that eIF 2B activity was inhibited in parental CHO cell extracts upon addition of purified reticulocyte heme regulated inhibitor ( HRI ) , an eIF 2 alpha kinase that phosphorylates Ser 51 . ^^^ Preincubation with purified HRI also reduced the eIF 2B activity in extracts from cells overexpressing wild type eIF 2 alpha . ^^^ |

We examined the isoforms of eIF4B and the alpha and beta subunits of eIF 2 during the development and germination of wheat seed to determine whether the differences in their phosphorylation state are because of tissue specific regulation or occur concomitant with changes in protein synthetic activity during development . eIF2alpha underwent phosphorylation through several intermediate isoforms that correlated with the increase and subsequent reduction in protein synthetic activity characteristic of seed development . eIF2beta and eIF4B , present as highly phosphorylated isoforms during early seed development , underwent dephosphorylation during late development . eIF4B was rapidly phosphorylated within 20 h of germination , whereas eIF2alpha did not undergo dephosphorylation until 48 60 h of growth . ^^^ These observations suggest that the phosphorylation state of eIF2alpha , eIF2beta , and eIF4B is developmentally regulated in a way that correlates with the changes in protein synthetic activity but that some differences were also observed . . ^^^ |

At mild heat shock temperatures the main cause for inhibition is the inactivation of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor eukaryotic initiation factor 2B ( eIF2B ) ; under more severe heat shock conditions the activity of several initiation factors is compromised . eIF2B is required for GDP / GTP exchange on eIF 2 , which delivers methionyl tRNA to the 40 S ribosomal subunit . ^^^ In agreement with observations in cells exposed to mild heat shocks , the thermal inactivation of eIF2B could be ascribed to neither eIF2alpha phosphorylation nor the induction of another inhibitor . ^^^ |

Translational control is exerted primarily during initiation by two mechanisms : 1 ) through inhibition of translation initiation complex formation via sequestration of the cap binding protein , eukaryotic initiation factor ( eIF ) 4E , with inhibitory 4E binding proteins ( 4E BP ) ; and 2 ) by prevention of eIF 2 GTP tRNA ( 1 ) ( Met ) formation and eIF2B activity by phosphorylated eIF2alpha . ^^^ |

Eukaryotic initiation factor eIF 2 and its ' exchange factor ' eIF2B play a key role in the regulation of protein synthesis in eukaryotes from yeast to mammals . ^^^ Phosphorylation of eIF 2 inhibits eIF2B and thus translation initiation . ^^^ The importance of correct control of eIF 2 and eIF2B for normal physiology is exemplified by data from transgenic mice carrying knock in or knock out mutations and by the fact that mutations in the genes for the eIF 2 kinase PERK or for eIF2B give rise to serious human diseases . . ^^^ |

Phosphorylated eIF 2 is an inhibitor of its guanine nucleotide exchange factor , eIF2B . ^^^ Thus , two structurally distinct effectors of eIF 2 function , eIF2alpha kinases and eIF2B , have evolved to recognize the same surface and overlapping determinants on eIF2alpha . . ^^^ PKR and GCN 2 kinases and guanine nucleotide exchange factor eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B ( eIF2B ) recognize overlapping surfaces on eIF2alpha . ^^^ In contrast , mutations that blocked translational regulation but not Ser 51 phosphorylation impaired the binding of eIF2B to phosphorylated eIF2alpha . ^^^ |

We show that although the cells expressing mutant eIF2B genes respond normally to stress conditions by reduced global translation rates , they exhibit significantly greater increase in ATF 4 induction compared to normal controls despite equal levels of stress and activity of the upstream eIF2alpha kinase . ^^^ |

Dynamic cycling of eIF 2 through a large eIF2B containing cytoplasmic body : implications for translation control . ^^^ The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B ( eIF2B ) provides a fundamental controlled point in the pathway of protein synthesis . eIF2B is the heteropentameric guanine nucleotide exchange factor that converts eIF 2 , from an inactive guanosine diphosphate bound complex to eIF 2 guanosine triphosphate . ^^^ Here we demonstrate that in contrast to other translation initiation factors , eIF2B and eIF 2 colocalize to a specific cytoplasmic locus . ^^^ Indeed eIF 2 shuttles into these foci whereas eIF2B remains largely resident . ^^^ Three different strategies to decrease the guanine nucleotide exchange function of eIF2B all inhibit eIF 2 shuttling into the foci . ^^^ |

The large spectrum of eIF2B related diseases . eIF2B ( eukaryotic initiation factor 2B ) is a GEF ( guanine nucleotide exchange factor ) that plays , with its substrate eIF 2 , a key regulatory role in the translation initiation phase of protein synthesis . ^^^ The importance of correct control of eIF 2 and eIF2B for normal physiology is underlined by the recent involvement of the five genes that encode the five eIF2B subunits in a severe autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease , described in young children as CACH ( childhood ataxia with central nervous system hypomyelination ) / VWM ( leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter ) syndrome . ^^^ |

Interaction of recombinant human eIF 2 subunits with eIF2B and eIF2alpha kinases . ^^^ Consistent with this observation , the beta subunit specifically interacts with the purified eIF2B in ELISA studies and this interaction is enhanced when wt eIF2alpha in the recombinant trimeric complex is phosphorylated or replaced by a mutant phosphomimetic eIF2alpha ( S51D ) . ^^^ |

We examined whether supplementation of HeLa cell extracts with any translation initiation factor or translational regulator could enhance protein synthesis . eIF 2 ( eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 ) and eIF2B augmented translation of capped , uncapped and encephalomyocarditis virus internal ribosome entry site promoted mRNAs . eIF4E specifically stimulated capped mRNA translation , while p 97 , a homologue to the C terminal two thirds of eIF4G , increased uncapped mRNA translation . ^^^ When the HeLa cell extract was supplemented with a combination of eIF 2 , eIF2B , and p 97 , the capacity to synthesize a protein from an uncapped mRNA became comparable to that from the capped counterpart stimulated with a combination of eIF 2 , eIF2B , and eIF4E . ^^^ |

The factor eIF 5 stimulates hydrolysis of GTP by eIF 2 upon AUG codon recognition , whereas the factor eIF2B promotes guanine nucleotide exchange on eIF 2 to recycle the factor for additional rounds of translation initiation . ^^^ The GTP binding ( G ) domain resides in the gamma subunit of the heterotrimeric eIF 2 ; however , only eIF2beta , and not eIF2gamma , has been reported to directly bind to eIF 5 or eIF2B . ^^^ Thus , rather than allosterically regulating eIF2gamma G domain function via eIF2beta , our data support a model in which the GTPase activating factor eIF 5 and the guanine nucleotide exchange factor eIF2B modulate eIF 2 function through direct interactions with the eIF2gamma G domain . . ^^^ |

GDP binds the pentameric factor eIF2B for guanine nucleotide exchange . eIF 5 and the eIF2Bvarepsilon catalytic subunit possess a conserved eIF 2 binding site . ^^^ Nearly half of cellular eIF 2 forms a complex with eIF 5 lacking Met tRNA ( 1 ) ( Met ) , and here we investigate its physiological significance . eIF 5 overexpression increases the abundance of both eIF2 / eIF5 and TC / eIF5 complexes , thereby impeding eIF2B reaction and MFC formation , respectively . eIF2Bvarepsilon mutations , but not other eIF2B mutations , enhance the ability of overexpressed eIF 5 to compete for eIF 2 , indicating that interaction of eIF2Bvarepsilon with eIF 2 normally disrupts eIF2 / eIF5 interaction . ^^^ We propose that the eIF2 / eIF5 complex represents a cytoplasmic reservoir for eIF 2 that antagonizes eIF2B promoted guanine nucleotide exchange , enabling coordinated regulation of translation initiation . . ^^^ |
