WHITE • Department of Veterinary Molecular Biology, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana 59717 YAN ZHANG • Department of Biochemistry and Kaplan Cancer Center, New York University Medical Center, New York, New York 10016 Preface This book, which results from the dramatic increase in interest in the control mechanism employed in gene expression and the importance of the regulated proteins, presents new information not covered in Translational Regulation of Gene Expression, which was published in 1987. It is not a revision of the earlier book but, rather, an extension of that volume witl, special emphasis on mecha nIsm. As the reader will discover, there is enormous diversity in the systems employing genes for translational regulation in order to regulate the appearance of the final product-the protein. Thus, we find that important proteins such as protooncogenes, growth factors, stress proteins, cytokines, lymphokines, iron storage and iron-uptake proteins, and a panorama of prokaryotic proteins, as well as eukaryotic viral proteins, are translationally regulated. Since for some gene products the degree of control is greater by a few orders of magnitude than their transcription, we can state that for these genes, at least, the expression is translationall y controlled. Translational regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes has emerged in the last few years as a major research field. The present book describes mechanisms of translational regulation in bacteria, yeast, and eukaryotic viruses, as well as in eukaryotic genes. In this book we try to provide in-depth coverage by including important examples from each group rather than systematically including all additional systems not described in the previous volume. The first paper on translational regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes appeared in 1970 (Han, 1., Han, 1., and Patel, N., 1970, Mechanism of gene expression in Tenebrio molitor-Juvenile hormone determination of translational control through transfer ribonucleic acid and enzyme, J BioI. Chern. 245:1275- 1281). In this publication, translational control, mRNA stability during develop- xi xii Preface ment, codon bias, and hormonal involvement in translational regulation were described for the first time. This paper was greeted with skepticism since the thinking at that time was based on the model for transcriptional control of gene expression suggested by F. Jacob and 1. Monod emphasizing that mRNA must be a short-lived intermediate. The reviewers of the 1970 paper considered the described mechanism with disbelief, disregarding the experimental evidence. Our descrip tion of the role of isoacceptor tRNA in translational regulation in insects has been rediscovered 20 years later by the groups of Lazrini and Candelas (see Chapter 12 in this volume). I would like to thank the contributors for their considerable patience and labor. I think the final product will satisfy contributors and readers alike. Joseph Han Cleveland, Ohio
