Based on yeast-two hybrid protein interaction we found out that Ki-1/57 interacts with adaptor protein RACK1 (receptor of activated kinase 1), CIRP (cold-inducible RNA-binding protein), RPL38 (ribosomal protein L38) and FXR1 (fragile X mental retardation-related protein 1). Since these proteins are involved in the regulation of translation we suspected that Ki-1/57 may have a role in it. We show by immunoprecipitation the association of Ki-1/57 with FMRP. Confocal microscopy revealed that Ki-1/57 colocalizes with FMRP/FXR1/2 to stress granules. Furthermore Ki-1/57 cosediments with free ribosomal particles and enhances translation, when tethered to a reporter mRNA, suggesting that Ki-1/57 may be involved in translational regulation.pdfengElsevier B.V.Regulatory proteinProtein–protein interactionTranslationArtigo
