Rapamycin differentially inhibits S6Ks and 4E-BP1 to mediate cell-type-specific repression of mRNA translation

Abstract: The mammalian translational initiation machinery is a tightly controlled system that is composed of eukaryotic initiation factors, and which controls the recruitment of ribosomes to mediate cap-dependent translation. Accordingly, the mTORC1 complex functionally controls this cap-dependent translation machinery through the phosphorylation of its downstream substrates 4E-BPs and S6Ks. It is generally accepted that rapamycin, a specific inhibitor of mTORC1, is a potent translational repressor. Here we report the … Show more

“…However, rapamycin was unable to inhibit Rheb-induced phosphorylation of the mTORC1 downstream target 4EBP1. This was consistent with recent findings indicating that 4EBP1 phosphorylation may become rapamycin resistant in some cell types and under certain experimental conditions (Choo et al, 2008;Thoreen et al, 2009). Therefore, to confirm that Rheb can regulate AMPK activity independently of mTORC1, we used Torin1, an ATP-competitive mTOR inhibitor, which effectively inhibits mTORC1 activity (Thoreen et al, 2009).…”

“…Phosphorylation of the alternative mTORC1 target 4Ebp1 (Thr36/45) was previously shown to be less sensitive to rapamycin-mediated inhibition compared to pS6 (Ser240/244). 16 Comparably vistusertib was capable of inhibiting p4Ebp1 (Thr36/45) to a greater extent than rapamycin (Fig. S1C).…”

“…Rapamycin influenced the phosphorylation state of mTORC1 downstream factors; however, the extent of inhibition was different. Previous studies have shown that S6 activity is completely inhibited by rapamycin, but 4EBP1 is only partially inhibited depending on the cell type or duration of rapamycin treatment (23). Thus the restricted inhibition of 4EBP1 shown in the present study was due to the potential of rapamycin.…”
