Our objective was to investigate the relationship between guanidino compounds and hyperammonemia. Young and adult ferrets were fed a single meal of either an arginine-containing diet (ACD) or an arginine-free diet (AFD). Guanidino compounds were determined by HPLC in the plasma, liver, kidney and brain 3 h after feeding the specified diet. Only young ferrets fed AFD developed hyperammonemia. Plasma and kidney arginine was decreased whereas guanidinosuccinic acid was increased in young ferrets fed AFD. Hepatic creatine and kidney and brain guanidinoacetic acid were significantly decreased in this group. These results indicate that AFD-induced hyperammonemia produced decreased methylation activity in the liver and transamidination activity in kidney.

Analyses of the synthesis and processing of the int-2 protein, using an SV40-based vector to express cloned cDNA, showed four major products in the size range 27.5-31.5 kd that were associated with the secretory pathway. Further experiments using a cell-free translation system programmed with int-2 cRNA revealed a larger N-terminally extended protein. Site-directed mutagenesis of possible initiation codons confirmed that the first in-frame AUG codon would specify the start of a protein that includes a signal peptide for transport into the endoplasmic reticulum. However, protein synthesis also initiates at an upstream CUG codon to yield a polypeptide extended at the N-terminus by 29 amino acids. Immunofluorescent staining showed that a substantial proportion of the CUG-initiated protein resides in the cell nucleus, while a truncated int-2, lacking both the N-terminal extension and the signal peptide, was exclusively nuclear. These observations suggest that a nuclear localisation signal occurs in the body of the int-2 molecule, but is only accessible to the nuclear transport system if entry to the secretory pathway is compromised. Thus, the choice of initiation codon changes the subcellular fate of the int-2 protein and provides the potential for a duality of function through alternative transport pathways.</p>","PeriodicalId":11933,"journal":{"name":"Enzyme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1159/000468760","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13126166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies of the protamine 1 gene, one member of a class of translationally regulated genes, have shown that it is first transcribed post-meiotically in round spermatids, and that the mRNA is stored in an untranslatable form as an inactive ribonucleoprotein particle for up to 1 week before it is translated. The analysis of the expression of fusions between the protamine gene and reporter genes in transgenic mice has demonstrated that sequences mapping in the 3'-untranslated region of the protamine mRNA are sufficient to confer protamine-like translational regulation on the chimeric mRNAs. It is proposed that sequence-specific RNA-binding proteins interact with the protamine 3'-untranslated region and mediate the temporal translational control.
