Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 3. eIF4E is required for MCT-1 interaction with the cap complex. The eIF4E was immunodepleted from the reticulocyte lysate containing the MCT-1 and MCT-1 deletion proteins. A, Western blot with eIF4E antibody of the lysate before and after eIF4E depletion as well as the depleted eIF4E. B, the cap binding assay was done as in Fig. 2B, but also with the eIF4E-depleted extract (left). Right, 5% of the input MCT-1 and deletion proteins. C, MCT-1 and DENR sediment with the translation initiation complex. Transiently transfected 293HEK cells were used for polysome preparation as described. Fractions 1 to 3 are typically completely devoid of ribosome components and contain multifactor complex. Representative polysome distribution profile (top). Representative Western blot analysis with antibodies against eIF2a, eIF4E, Myc-DENR, V5-MCT-1, h-actin, and rS6p (bottom).

Article Snippet: Half of this reaction (50 AL) was used for overnight depletion of eIF4E by using 4 Ag of eIF4E antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology), 20 AL of protein A/G agarose beads and protease inhibitor.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 6. Proposed model for role of MCT-1 in translation. MCT-1 bound to DENR binds to the cap complex either directly or indirectly through interaction with eIF4E with enhanced translation initiation by scanning and recognition of the initiation codon. MCT-1 and DENR might also recruit additional translation factors to the translation initiation complex.
