Clustered substitutions of Ded1 NTD residues that impair interaction with eIF4A or eIF4E in vitro confer growth defects in yeast.

(A) Schematics of the myc13-tagged parental DED1 and ded1-ts alleles, expressed from the native DED1 promoter (PDED1) on a single copy (sc) plasmid, used to introduce NTD mutations described in Figure 2A. (B) Mutations substituting single or double binding determinants for eIF4A (21-27; 51-57; 21-27/51-57) or eIF4E (59-65; 83-89; 59-65/83-89) display synthetic temperature sensitivities with the ded1-ts allele of differing severity. Serial dilutions of yeast strains derived from yRP2799 by plasmid-shuffling containing the indicated derivatives of the ded1-ts (rows 2–12), or WT DED1 allele (row 1), on sc LEU2 plasmids (listed in Table 3) were spotted on synthetic complete medium lacking Leu (SC-Leu) and incubated at the indicated temperatures for 2-4d. (C) Disruption of eIF4A and eIF4E binding sites concurrently confers a severe growth defect comparable to that of NTD deletion Δ2–90. Yeast strains harboring the indicated derivatives of DED1 (rows 1–5) or ded1-ts (rows 6–8) were analyzed as in (B). (D) Expression levels of the indicated mutants from (B) or (C) were assessed by Western analysis of WCEs extracted under denaturing conditions with TCA, using the indicated antibodies, following growth in SC-Leu at 18°C for DED1 derivatives and 34°C for ded1-ts derivatives. Ded1/Hcr1 ratios of the indicated derivatives of the WT DED1 or ded1-ts allele were obtained by ImageJ analysis of 3 independent experiments and are normalized to the corresponding parental allele’s Ded1/Hcr1 ratios. This particular blot was atypical in suggesting a reduced level of the ded1-ts-Δ2–90 product.

Disrupting Ded1 NTD binding determinants for eIF4A or eIF4E selectively impair association of the ded1-ts product with native eIF4A or eIF4E in yeast WCEs.

Transformants of strain H4436 (expressing HA-tagged eIF4G1 and lacking eIF4G2) harboring the indicated derivatives of (myc13-tagged) ded1-ts were cultured in SC-Leu-Trp medium and WCEs prepared under non-denaturing conditions (lanes 1–4) were immunoprecipitated with anti-myc antibodies (lanes 5–12). Aliquots corresponding to 5% of the WCEs and 50% of the resulting immune complexes, either without treatment (lanes 5–8) or following 30 min treatment with RNAse A/T1 at room temperature (lanes 9–12), were subjected to Western analysis with the indicated antibodies.

Disruption of Ded1 NTD interactions with eIF4A or eIF4E confer bulk and mRNA-specific translation defects in vivo.

(A) Polysome profiling of derivatives of strain yRP2799 containing the indicated ded1-ts alleles lacking binding determinants for eIF4A (ii) or eIF4E (iii) exhibit a decrease in bulk polysome assembly compared to the parental ded1-ts strain (i). Strains were cultured in SC-Leu medium after shifting from 30°C to 36°C for 3 hr, and WCE extracts were resolved by velocity sedimentation and scanned at 260 nm. The mean ratios of polysomes to monosomes (P/M) determined from three replicate WCEs are indicated. The mean P/M ratios for each mutant differ significantly from the WT mean ratio (both p-values<0.002), but not from each other (p=0.08). Parallel analysis of isogenic DED1+ cells revealed, as expected, a significantly greater P/M ratio (3.90 + / - 0.11) compared to that shown in the figure for ded1-ts (2.39 + / - 0.10). (B) Schema of the reporter constructs employed to interrogate Ded1-dependent translation in vivo, containing the RPL41A promoter and 3’UTR containing derivatives of the RPL41A 5’UTR harboring 23 tandem repeats of CAA nucleotides (nt) and designed to be largely unstructured (No SL, pFJZ342), or additionally containing a stem-loop insertion (of predicted ΔG of −3.7kcal/mol) located 55 nt from the 5’end (Cap-distal SL, pFJZ623), or a SL (of predicted ΔG of −8.1kcal/mol) at seven nt from the 5’end (Cap-proximal SL, pFJZ669). (C) Transformants of strains derived from yRP2799 with the indicated ded1-ts alleles and reporter constructs from (B) were cultured in SC-Leu at 34°C for two doublings and mean specific luciferase activities were determined from three independent transformants and normalized to that obtained for the reporters in the ded1-ts parental strain, which were set to unity.*: Significant differences in mean values compared to ded1-ts; †: compared to ded1-ts/51–57; #: compared to ded1-ts/59–65; §: compared to ded1-ts/83–89, as indicated by a p-value of <0.05 in an unpaired student’s t-test. The effects of substitutions in impairing binding to eIF4A, eIF4E, or neither protein (Control), are indicated at the bottom. (D) Distributions of ACT1 mRNA (i), or Cap-proximal SL reporter mRNA (ii), across sucrose gradients following velocity sedimentation of WCEs of strains from (C) containing the indicated ded1 alleles and the Cap-proximal SL reporter. qRT-PCR was conducted on total RNA purified from each fraction using primers specific for ACT1 or FLUC mRNA, and the abundance of each transcript was normalized to that of a set of ‘spike-in’ controls and plotted as a fraction of the total normalized abundance in the entire gradient. The mean values and S.E.M.s determined from three replicate gradients are plotted.

Data from Figure 8D (ii) for the cap-proximal SL FLUC mRNA was analyzed using a Student’s unpaired t-test to compare the mean FLUC mRNA proportions calculated from three replicates for each polysome fraction between the ts/21-27/51-57 and ts/59-65/83-89 mutant strain and the parental strain (ts).

The most significant changes (decreases) in FLUC mRNA distribution occur in heavy polysome fractions in both ts/21-27/51-57 and ts/59-65/83-89 mutants. FLUC mRNA accumulates significantly in the mRNP fraction and the last of the light polysome fractions in the ts/21-27/51-57 mutant; and in the monosome fraction and first two light polysome fractions in the ts/59-65/83-89 mutant. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.005.

Disruption of Ded1 NTD interactions with eIF4A or eIF4E alter the kinetics of 48S assembly in the reconstituted system for a synthetic mRNA with Cap-proximal SL.

(A–B) Kinetics of 48S PIC assembly was analyzed in reactions containing reconstituted 43S PICs, a radiolabeled capped reporter mRNA containing a cap-proximal SL of predicted ΔG of −8.1kcal/mol located five nt from the 5’end (depicted schematically), and different concentrations of mutant or WT Ded1 protein. Formation of 48S PICs was detected using a native gel mobility shift assay and measured as a function of time, allowing determination of observed rates at each Ded1 concentration. The maximum rates (kmax) (A) and Ded1 concentration at the half-maximal rate (K1/2) (B) were determined from three replicate sets of assays and the individual values (black points) and mean values (bar heights) are plotted for experiments containing no Ded1, WT full-length Ded1 (FL Ded1), Ded1 lacking N-terminal residues 2–116 (ded1ΔNTD), or FL Ded1 harboring the indicated NTD substitutions that impair binding to eIF4A (green bars) or eIF4E (orange bars). (C) Model to account for the greater requirements for the Ded1-NTD interactions with eIF4A and eIF4E in stimulating translation of mRNAs with strong secondary structures versus relatively unstructured 5’UTRs. Ded1 interactions with each of the subunits of the eIF4F complex lowers the concentration of Ded1 required for its recruitment to the capped 5’ ends of all mRNAs, where it can unwind structures that impede PIC attachment or scanning to the start codon. Structured mRNAs (right) require a more stable association between Ded1 and eIF4F for maximum Ded1 recruitment and, hence, are relatively more dependent on having both eIF4A and eIF4E contacts with the Ded1 NTD intact. Unwinding stable SL structures for the latter additionally requires the enhancement of Ded1 unwinding activity conferred by its interaction with eIF4A (red arrows on the right) to achieve maximum acceleration of PIC attachment or scanning. (D) Schematic summary of the relative importance of interactions of the Ded1 NTD with eIF4A and eIF4E and the Ded1 CTD with eIF4G, in stimulating Ded1 recruitment to mRNA and its RNA helicase activity. (i) In WT cells, Ded1’s multiple interactions with the subunits of eIF4F enhance recruitment of Ded1 in complex with eIF4F to the m7G cap to form a stable activated mRNP, which can subsequently recruit the 43S PIC and efficiently scan the 5’UTR to locate the AUG codon (not depicted). Eliminating the Ded1 CTD and its direct contact to eIF4G (ii, red Δ), confers a modest reduction in Ded1 function, whereas greater reductions are conferred by substitution mutations in the Ded1 NTD (red asterisks) that impair Ded1 interaction with eIF4E (iii) or eIF4A (iv). Even greater decreases in Ded1 function are seen on combining each of the Ded1 NTD substitutions with deletion of the Ded1 CTD (v–vi).
