In neurons, local protein synthesis in synaptodendritic
microdomains has been implicated in the growth and plasticity of
synapses. Prerequisites for local translation are the targeted
transport of RNAs to distal sites of synthesis in dendrites and
translational control mechanisms to limit synthesis to times of demand.
Here we identify dendritic BC1 RNA as a specific repressor of
translation. Experimental use of internal ribosome entry mechanisms and
sucrose density gradient centrifugation showed that BC1-mediated
repression targets translation at the level of initiation.
Specifically, BC1 RNA inhibited formation of the 48S preinitiation
complex, i.e., recruitment of the small ribosomal subunit to the
messenger RNA (mRNA). However, 48S complex formation that is
independent of the eukaryotic initiation factor 4 (eIF4) family of
initiation factors was found to be refractory to inhibition by BC1 RNA,
a result that implicates at least one of these factors in the BC1 repression pathway. Biochemical experiments indicated a specific interaction of BC1 RNA with eIF4A, an RNA unwinding factor, and with
poly(A)-binding protein. Both proteins were found enriched in
synaptodendritic microdomains. Significantly, BC1-mediated repression
was shown to be effective not only in cap-dependent translation
initiation but also in eIF4-dependent internal initiation. The results
suggest a functional role of BC1 RNA as a mediator of translational
control in local protein synthesis in nerve cells.
