Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS This study used proteomics and biochemical approaches to identify novel glucose-regulated proteins and to unveil their role in pancreatic beta cell function. Translationally controlled tumour protein (TCTP) was identified to be one such protein, and further investigations into its function and regulation were carried out. METHODS Global protein profiling of beta cell homogenates following glucose stimulation was performed using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Proteins were identified by mass spectroscopy analysis. Immunoblotting was used to investigate alterations in TCTP protein levels in response to glucose stimulation or cell stress induced by palmitate. To investigate the biological function of TCTP, immunolocalisation, gene knockdown and overexpression of Tctp (also known as Tpt1) were performed. Apoptosis was measured in Tctp knockdown or Tctp-overexpressing cells. Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was carried out in Tctp knockdown cells. RESULTS TCTP was identified as a novel glucose-regulated protein, the level of which is increased at stimulatory glucose concentration. Glucose also induced TCTP dephosphorylation and its partial translocation to the mitochondria and the nucleus. TCTP protein levels were downregulated in response to cell stress induced by palmitate or thapsigargin treatments. Gene knockdown by small interfering RNA led to increased apoptosis, whereas overproduction of TCTP prevented palmitate-induced cell death. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Regulation of TCTP protein levels by glucose is likely to be an important cyto-protective mechanism for pancreatic beta cells against damage caused by hyperglycaemia. In contrast, high concentration of palmitate causes cell stress, reduction in TCTP levels and consequently reduced cell viability. Our results imply that TCTP levels influence the sensitivity of beta cells to apoptosis.

Abstract
The translationally controlled protein P23 was discovered by the early induction of its rate of synthesis after mitogenic stimulation of mouse fibroblasts. P23 is expressed in almost all mammalian tissues and it is highly conserved between animals, plants and yeast. Based on its amino acid sequence, P23 cannot be attributed to any known protein family, and its cellular function remains to be elucidated. Here, we present evidence that P23 has properties of a tubulin binding protein that associates with microtubules in a cell cycle-dependent manner. (1) P23 is a cytoplasmic protein that occurs in complexes of 100–150 kDa, and part of P23 can be immunoprecipitated from HeLa cell extracts with anti-tubulin antibodies. (2) In immunolocalisation experiments we find P23 associated with microtubules during G1, S, G2 and early M phase of the cell cycle. At metaphase, P23 is also bound to the mitotic spindle, and it is detached from the spindle during metaphase-anaphase transition. (3) A GST-P23 fusion protein interacts with alpha- and beta-tubulin, and recombinant P23 binds to taxol-stabilised microtubules in vitro. The tubulin binding domain of P23 was identified by mutational analysis; it shows similarity to part of the tubulin binding domain of the microtubule-associated protein MAP-1B. (4) Overexpression of P23 results in cell growth retardation and in alterations of cell morphology. Moreover, elevation of P23 levels leads to microtubule rearrangements and to an increase in microtubule mass and stability.

Abstract
There is now a growing body of evidence which suggests links between the regulation of protein synthesis and the disruption of cell behaviour that typifies cancer. This directed issue of the International Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology presents several review articles of relevance to this field. The topics covered include the significance of the regulation and overexpression of polypeptide chain initiation factors for cell transformation and malignancy, the role of mRNA structure in the control of synthesis of key growth regulatory proteins, the actions of the eIF2 alpha-specific protein kinase PKR in the control cell growth and apoptosis, and the involvement of the elongation factor eEF1 in oncogenesis. The purpose of this article is to give an overview of the field and to indicate where we may expect developments to occur in the next few years.

Abstract
By affinity labelling using two different GTP photoaffinity analogues we previously demonstrated that both the beta- and gamma-subunits of eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2 are involved in GTP binding (Bommer, U.-A. and Kurzchalia, T.V. (1989) FEBS Lett. 244, 323-327). We have now applied the same method in combination with CNBr cleavage and microsequence analysis in order investigate which part of the polypeptide chain of eIF-2 beta is in close contact to the bound GTP. From the three main CNBr fragments of eIF-2 beta, the C-terminal one was found to be labelled by the applied GTP photoaffinity analogue, Guo(2',3'-TDBH)ppp. Because the cDNA sequence of the gamma-subunit of eIF-2 has not yet been published and because cDNA sequence analysis of eIF-2 beta revealed only two out of three consensus sequence elements of a GTP-binding domain, we also sequenced the CNBr fragments of eIF-2 gamma. In this way, sequences containing about 50 amino acid residues were obtained. Taken together with the recently published N-terminal sequences of tryptic peptides of eIF-2 gamma from pig liver (Suzuki et al. 1990, J. Biochem. 108, 635-641), about 30% of the total sequence is now known. One of the CNBr fragments from rabbit eIF-2 gamma contains a sequence (AXXAXXGK) which in several respects resembles that of the consensus sequence element absent from the beta-subunit.

Abstract
More than ten different protein factors are involved in initiation of protein synthesis in eukaryotes. For binding of initiator tRNA and mRNA to the 40S ribosomal subunit, the initiation factors eIF-2 and eIF-3 are particularly important. They consist of several different subunits and form stable complexes with the 40S ribosomal subunit. The location of eIF-2 and eIF-3 in these complexes as well as the interactions of the individual components have been analyzed by biochemical methods and electron microscopy. The results obtained are summarized in this article, and a model is derived describing the spatial arrangement of eIF-2 and eIF-3 together with initiator tRNA and mRNA on the 40S subunit. Conclusions on the location of functionally important sites of eukaryotic small ribosomal subunits are discussed with regard to the respective location of these sites in the prokaryotic counterpart.

Abstract
We have previously shown that a GTP derivative bearing p-azidoaniline at the gamma-phosphate group specifically labels the gamma-subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2. In the present study a new GTP derivative carrying the photoreactive group at the ribose moiety of GTP was applied for affinity labeling of eIF-2 in different initiation complexes. Using this GTP analogue the beta-subunit of eIF-2 was found to be specifically labeled in all complexes investigated. It is concluded that GTP interacts with both the beta- and gamma-subunit of eIF-2: the guanosine moiety is in contact with the beta-subunit and the gamma-phosphate group with the gamma-subunit.

Abstract
Monospecific polyclonal antibodies against seven proteins of the 40 S subunit of rat liver ribosomes were used to identify ribosomal proteins involved in interaction with initiation factor eIF-2 in the quaternary initiation complex [eIF-2 X GMPPCP X [3H]Met-tRNAf X 40 S ribosomal subunit]. Dimeric immune complexes of 40 S subunits mediated by antibodies against ribosomal proteins S3a, S13/16, S19 and S24 were found to be unable to bind the ternary initiation complex [eIF-2 X GMPPCP X [3H]Met-tRNAf]. In contrast, 40 S dimers mediated by antibodies against proteins S2, S3 and S17 were found to bind the ternary complex. Therefore, from the ribosomal proteins tested, only proteins S3a, S13/16, S19 and S24 are concluded to be involved in eIF-2 binding to the 40 S subunit.

Abstract
The location of initiation factor eIF-2 and of its subunits in quaternary initiation complexes (40S-ribosomal-subunit.eIF-2. GuoPP[CH2]P.Met-tRNAf) was investigated by immunoelectron microscopy. Quaternary complexes were fixed with glutaraldehyde and reacted with affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies against eIF-2 alpha, eIF-2 beta or eIF-2 gamma. The dimeric immune complexes obtained by sucrose gradient centrifugation were investigated electron microscopically after negative staining. Antibody-binding sites were observed on the interface side of the 40S ribosomal subunit in the region between the 'head' and the 'body' (neck region) of the 40S ribosomal subunit. Within this region, eIF-2 alpha points to the rear side, whereas eIF-2 beta and eIF-2 gamma point to the frontal side of the 40S subunit indicating an elongated shape of eIF-2 about 15 nm long. By analytical ultracentrifugation of isolated eIF-2 the sedimentation and diffusion coefficients were determined to be 6.54 S and 4.74 x 10(-7) cm2/s respectively. From these data, a molar mass of 122.4 kg/mol and a dry volume of 147.4 nm3 were calculated. For the shape of eIF-2 a prolate ellipsoid of revolution is assumed with a maximal length of about 15 nm and with an axial ratio of about 1:3.5. This conclusion is further confirmed by a calculated frictional ratio of 1.37 and a Stokes radius of about 4.54 nm.

Abstract
The interaction of GTP with initiation factor eIF-2 in different complexes was studied by affinity labeling using a derivative of [3H]GTP carrying a photoreactive group in the alpha-phosphate moiety. In the binary complex [eIF-2.GTP analogue], in the ternary complex [eIF-2.GTP analogue.Met-tRNAf] as well as in the eIF-2. eIF-2B complex the alpha-subunit of eIF-2 was found to be specifically labeled. GTP is concluded to interact during polypeptide chain initiation with the alpha-subunit of eIF-2 at least by its alpha-phosphate group.

Abstract
The distribution of initiation factor 2(eIF-2) and elongation factor 2(EF-2) in cultured mouse embryo fibroblasts was studied and compared with the distribution of ribosomes. We used immunofluorescence microscopy with monospecific antibodies to eIF-2, EF-2, and proteins S3a and S7 of the small ribosomal subunit. Ribosomes and factors eIF-2 and EF-2 were found mainly in the vicinity of the cell nucleus. This perinuclear zone coincides with the endoplasm - the central part of the cell containing numerous membraneous organelles and inclusions. Besides the perinuclear zone, small stained regions could be seen at the periphery of some cells. After treatment of the cells with Triton X-100 in a buffer conditions, that stabilizes the major cytoskeletal structures, some of the ribosomes, eIF-2, and EF-2 remained bound to the insoluble material. These components were found near the nucleus and some were located along the microfilament bundles.

Abstract
The protein synthesis-stimulating activity of the cytosolic fraction from regenerating rat liver was tested in a cell-free system using washed polysomes from normal rat liver. This activity undergoes significant changes during liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (p.h.). An initial decrease until 16 h after p.h. is followed by a significant increase until 24 h after p.h. Beyond 32 h after p.h. the activity begins to decline again. Evidence is presented that these changes of the cytosolic activity may not be due to alterations in the distribution of protein synthesis-stimulating factors between the microsomal and the cytosolic fraction. The Met-tRNAf-binding activity of the cytosolic fraction changes during liver regeneration analogously to the protein synthesis-stimulating activity measured in the polysomal assay. This indicates that initiation factor eIF-2 is involved in the observed changes of the cytosolic activity. This conclusion could be confirmed by addition of purified eIF-2 to the polysomal assay system. Addition of eIF-2 to cytosolic fractions of low endogenous protein synthesis-stimulating activity (16 h after p.h.) enhances amino-acid incorporation to a significantly higher extent than addition to highly active cytosolic fractions (24 h and 32 h after p.h.). From these results it is concluded that changes in eIF-2 plays an essential role in the described alterations of the cytosolic activities during liver regeneration.

Abstract
On the basis of hydrodynamic, electron microscopic and biochemical investigations a new model of the structure of initiation factor eIF-3 is proposed. From sedimentation and diffusion coefficients of 16.35 S and 2.13 X 10(-7) cm2/s, respectively, as well as from sedimentation equilibrium measurements, a molecular mass of about 650 kDa was determined for isolated eIF-3. This is in agreement with molecular mass estimations by sodium dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis. A partial specific volume of 0.723 cm3/g was determined by means of the amino acid composition and the specific volume increments of the amino acids. From this value and from the molecular mass, a volume of 780 nm3 was calculated for eIF-3. In electron micrographs of isolated eIF-3, images with triangular profiles and side lengths of 14 nm, 16 nm, and 17 nm have been observed. Taking into account the calculated volume and considering the triangular image as one face of the particle, it is suggested that eIF-3 has the shape of a flat triangular prism with a height of about 7 nm and the above-mentioned side-lengths. This model is in agreement with results of electron microscopic investigations of eIF-3 in native small ribosomal subunits [Lutsch, G., Benndorf, R., Westermann, P., Bommer, U.-A. & Bielka, H. (1986) Eur. J. Cell Biol. 40/2, in press]. The high frictional ratio of about 1.7 also supports eIF-3 to be rather of a flat than of a globular shape.

Abstract
Native small ribosomal subunits (40SN) from rat liver and rabbit reticulocytes prepared at different KC1 concentrations have been investigated by electron microscopy after negative staining. Subunits of both origins show identical features. The initiation factor eIF-3 is located in the middle region of the convex rear side of the particles and covers an area extending from the protuberance at the interface up to the external surface. eIF-3 has the shape of a flat triangular prism and is attached with its triangular base to the ribosomal surface.

Abstract
Eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2 is an oligomeric protein consisting of three different subunits. During initiation of protein synthesis eIF-2 interacts with GTP, Met-tRNAf and 40 S ribosomal subunit. By affinity labeling with a photo-reactive GTP analogue it was shown that in the binary complex [eIF-2 X GTP] GTP is in contact with the gamma-subunit of eIF-2.
