RESUMO
The heme-regulated translational inhibitor (HRI) has been purified 4800-fold. On electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel, the purified HRI showed one major polypeptide band. The purified HRI inhibits protein synthesis in lysates containing optimal levels of hemin with inhibition kinetics which parallel those observed in heme-deficiency. Data are presented which are consistent with an enzymatic function of HRI in the inhibition of protein synthesis. The HRI is an adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate independent protein kinase which phosphorylates the small subunit (38,000) but not the large subunits (52,000 and 50,000) of the initiation factor which forms a ternary complex with Met-tRNAf and GTP. This evidence supports the hypothesis that inhibition of protein synthesis by HRI involves the phosphorylation of the initiation factor. These findings are discussed in relation to various models for the regulation of protein kinase activity by heme. (see article).
