Jun KO, et al. (2009) Activation of translation via reduction by thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. FEBS Lett 583(17):2804-10
Abstract: Previously we reported that in vitro translation activity in extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was stimulated by dithiothreitol (DTT) and further increased by the addition of thioredoxin (TRX1) [1]. To identify the pathway affecting translation, we cloned and purified thioredoxin reductase 1 (TRR1), thioredoxin reductase 2 (TRR2), glutaredoxin 1 (GRX1) and glutaredoxin reductase 1 (GLR1) as fusion proteins. Thioredoxin-mediated activation of translation was more effectively stimulated by NADPH or NADH than by DTT. Moreover, addition of TRR1 led to a further increase of translation in the presence of thioredoxin plus NADPH. These findings indicate that redox control via the thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase system plays an important role in the regulation of translation.
