GADD34 is one of a subset of proteins induced after DNA damage or cell growth arrest. To examine the function of GADD34, we used the yeast two-hybrid system to clone the protein that interacts with the murine GADD34. One cDNA clone was the C-terminal part of KIF3A gene including the tail domain. The interaction between GADD34 and KIF3A was confirmed in the NIH3T3 cells by in vivo two-hybrid analysis. We could detect that GADD34 was induced with methyl methanesulfonate; however, the mRNA induction of KIF3A was not detected.

The betacoronavirus genus contains five of the seven human coronaviruses, making it a particularly critical area of research to prepare for future viral emergence. We utilized three human betacoronaviruses, one from each subgenus-HCoV-OC43 (embecovirus), SARS-CoV-2 (sarbecovirus), and MERS-CoV (merbecovirus)-, to study betacoronavirus interactions with the PKR-like ER kinase (PERK) pathway of the integrated stress response (ISR)/unfolded protein response (UPR). The PERK pathway becomes activated by an abundance of unfolded proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), leading to phosphorylation of eIF2α and translational attenuation.

Article Synopsis
  • Pulmonary fibrosis is a serious and progressive lung disease that can result in respiratory failure, influenced by various cell types.
  • This study focused on how TGF-β, a protein, causes fibrosis-like changes in mouse epithelial cells using quantitative proteomics to explore the underlying mechanisms.
  • Key findings revealed that TGF-β affects processes related to cell structures like the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, identifies 114 proteins interacting with TGF-β, and initiates stress responses in cells, emphasizing the importance of specific signaling pathways in the disease progression.

The integrated stress response, especially stress granules (SGs), contributes to host immunity. Typical G3BP1 stress granules (tSGs) are usually formed after virus infection to restrain viral replication and stimulate innate immunity. Recently, several SG-like foci or atypical SGs (aSGs) with proviral function have been found during viral infection.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on three human betacoronaviruses (HCoV-OC43, SARS-CoV-2, and MERS-CoV) and their interaction with the PERK pathway, which plays a role in the integrated stress response and unfolded protein response in cells.
  • All three viruses activate the PERK pathway, but only SARS-CoV-2 shows significant phosphorylation of eIF2α during infection, impacting protein synthesis.
  • Dephosphorylation of eIF2α is crucial for the efficient replication of MERS-CoV and HCoV-OC43, while SARS-CoV-2 may limit translation by downregulating this process during infection.

Transforming growth factor (TGF-β1) is a critical profibrotic mediator in chronic lung disease, and there are no specific strategies to mitigate its adverse effects. Activation of TGF-β1 signaling is a multipart process involving ligands, transmembrane receptors, and transcription factors. In addition, an intricate network of adaptor proteins fine-tunes the signaling strength, duration, and activity.
