Phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 differentially affects mRNA translation based on ORF length

Abstract: Phosphorylation of Ribosomal Protein S6 (RPS6) was the first post-translational modification of the ribosome to be identified and is a commonly-used readout for mTORC1 activity. Although the cellular and organismal functions of RPS6 phosphorylation are known, the molecular consequences of RPS6 phosphorylation on translation are less well understood. Here we use selective ribosome footprinting to analyze the location of ribosomes containing phosphorylated RPS6 on endogenous mRNAs in cells. We find that RPS6 bec… Show more

“…Among those, however, an exception is that of 5TOP mRNAs that mainly encode ribosomal proteins and are translated more efficiently in S6 −/−P than WT cells. In agreement with this observation, ribosomal protein levels, a proxy of ribosome content, are higher in S6 −/−P as compared to WT cell (Bohlen et al, 2021), which is consistent with the difference in the rates of protein synthesis (Ruvinsky et al, 2005). An in vivo study employing S6 P−/mice indicates that in liver of animals fed after fasting eS6 phosphorylation mediates in part the stimulatory effects of S6K on the transcription of genes encoding RiBi (ribosome biogenesis) factors, implicated in the assembly and maturation of ribosomal subunits, contributing therefore to the increase in ribosome synthesis that ensues in response to feeding (Chauvin et al, 2014).…”

“…The mechanistic aspects of these effects have not been thoroughly investigated and it cannot be excluded that they arise from the activation of compensatory mechanisms. Some clues come from a recent study that by comparing the translation efficiency of WT and S6 −/−P cells provides evidence that eS6 phosphorylation has a mild stimulatory effect on the translation of short mRNAs (Bohlen et al, 2021). Among those, however, an exception is that of 5TOP mRNAs that mainly encode ribosomal proteins and are translated more efficiently in S6 −/−P than WT cells.…”

“…General events in these pathways include: (1) phosphorylation of eIF2a; (2) phosphorylation of eIF4E-binding proteins; (3) phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6; (4) inosine modification of double-stranded RNA; (5) endonucleolytic cleavage of ribosomal RNA. Combinations of these stress-activated inhibitory pathways play a major role in reprogramming protein translation in stressed cells [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Mechanisms of stress-induced protein synthesis inhibition also include the targeting of RNA components of the translational machinery—tRNAs in particular—by specific ribonucleases (RNases).…”

“…However, RPS6 phosphorylation-mediated control of protein synthesis is still under debate, and may be cell type-dependent. Furthermore, Bohlen and colleagues have demonstrated that the level of RPS6 phosphorylation differentially affects mRNA translation based on the length of their coding sequence (CDS) [33]. As ribosomes translate mRNAs, RPS6 are progressively dephosphorylated.…”
