Protein synthesis is one of the most complex and energy-consuming processes in eukaryotic cells and therefore is tightly regulated. One of the main mechanisms of translational control is post-translational modifications of the components of translational apparatus. Phosphorylation status of translation factors depends on the balanced action of kinases and phosphatases. While many kinase-dependent events are well defined, phosphatases that counteract phosphorylation are rarely determined. This mini-review focuses on the regulation of activity of translational initiation factors by serine/threonine phosphatases.
蛋白质合成是真核细胞中最复杂和耗能的过程之一,因此受到严格的调控。翻译调控的主要机制之一是翻译装置成分的翻译后修饰。翻译因子的磷酸化状态取决于激酶和磷酸酶的平衡作用。虽然许多依赖激酶的事件已经得到很好的定义,但很少确定对抗磷酸化的磷酸酶。本篇综述聚焦于丝氨酸/苏氨酸磷酸酶对翻译起始因子活性的调节。
