The specificity of phenylalanine and tyrosine carriers was investigated using actively metabolizing cells of Brevibacterium linens. The cellular protein synthesis of resting cells was very weakly inhibited, even with high concentrations of chloramphenicol or tetracycline. The nonaromatic amino acids were weak inhibitors for these carriers, while fluorinated analogues of phenylalanine and tyrosine were very potent competitive inhibitors. In practice these analogues cannot be used to replace amino acids to evaluate transport without incorporation because they are incorporated in cellular proteins.

We have studied the adenovirus-induced inhibition of host cell protein synthesis and the effect of infection on the overall metabolism of host cell mRNA during the late phase of adenovirus infection by following the fate of a number of cellular mRNAs complementary to specific cloned DNA segments. At a time in infection when the rate of total cellular protein synthesis is drastically (greater than 90%) reduced, transcription of specific cellular genes is undiminished. However, the transport of newly synthesized cellular mRNA to the cytoplasm is greatly decreased. This decreased appearance of new mRNA in the cytoplasm cannot account for the observed cessation of cell specific protein synthesis, however, since the concentration of several preexisting cellular mRNAs, including the mRNA for actin, remains unchanged throughout the course of infection. The preexisting mRNA is intact, capped, and functional as judged by its ability to direct protein synthesis in vitro in a cap-dependent fashion. The interruption in host translation appears to operate at the level of initiation directly, since we find that fewer ribosomes are associated with a given cellular mRNA after infection than before infection. Furthermore, the in vivo inhibition of cellular protein synthesis does not appear to be the result of competition with viral mRNA, since conditions which prevent the efficient initiation of translation of viral mRNA (infection with a viral mutant) do not result in the recovery of cell translation. Thus, it appears that a late adenovirus gene product directly mediates a shutoff of host protein synthesis.

ABSTRACT Translation of most cellular mRNAs involves cap binding by the translation initiation complex. Among this complex of proteins are cap-binding protein eIF4E and the eIF4E kinase Mnk1. Cap-dependent mRNA translation generally correlates with Mnk1 phosphorylation of eIF4E when both are bound to eIF4G. During the late phase of adenovirus (Ad) infection translation of cellular mRNA is inhibited, which correlates with displacement of Mnk1 from eIF4G by the viral 100-kDa (100K) protein and dephosphorylation of eIF4E. Here we describe the molecular mechanism for 100K protein displacement of Mnk1 from eIF4G and elucidate a structural basis for eIF4G interaction with Mnk1 and 100K proteins and Ad inhibition of cellular protein synthesis. The eIF4G-binding site is located in an N-terminal 66-amino-acid peptide of 100K which is sufficient to bind eIF4G, displace Mnk1, block eIF4E phosphorylation, and inhibit eIF4F (cap)-dependent cellular mRNA translation. Ad 100K and Mnk1 proteins possess a common eIF4G-binding motif, but 100K protein binds more strongly to eIF4G than does Mnk1. Unlike Mnk1, for which binding to eIF4G is RNA dependent, competitive binding by 100K protein is RNA independent. These data support a model whereby 100K protein blocks cellular protein synthesis by coopting eIF4G and cap-initiation complexes regardless of their association with mRNA and displacing or blocking binding by Mnk1, which occurs only on preassembled complexes, resulting in dephosphorylation of eIF4E.

Chloroquine and NH4Cl, potent inhibitors of lysosomal function, decreased the production of infectious Sindbis virus particles in BHK-21 cells by 10- and 12-fold, respectively. There were no apparent toxic effects on cells exposed to these lysosomotropic agents. These chemicals did not alter the rate of cellular protein synthesis, with the exception of a reversible twofold inhibition by chloroquine. No additive effects of chloroquine and NH4Cl were observed when the cells were saturated with these weak bases, which suggests that their effect is exerted via the same mechanism, most likely as a result of an increase in lysosomal pH. The reduction in the formation of Sindbis virions was monitored by incorporation of [35S]methionine and shown to be fourfold by chloroquine or NH4Cl at 5 h postinfection but negligible at 11 h postinfection. These results strongly suggest that a productive Sindbis virus infection requires functional lysosomes. Thus, endocytosis is probably the main infectious mechanism for penetration of this virus into BHK-21 cells.
