Abstract
Ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) is a component of the 40S small ribosomal subunit and participates in the control of mRNA translation. Additionally, phospho (p)-RPS6 has been recognized as a surrogate marker for the activated PI3K/AKT/mTORC1 pathway, which occurs in many cancer types. However, downstream mechanisms regulated by RPS6 or p-RPS remains elusive, and the therapeutic implication of RPS6 is underappreciated despite an approximately half a century history of research on this protein. In addition, substantial evidence from RPS6 knockdown experiments suggests the potential role of RPS6 in maintaining cancer cell proliferation. This motivates us to investigate the current knowledge of RPS6 functions in cancer. In this review article, we reviewed the current information about the transcriptional regulation, upstream regulators, and extra-ribosomal roles of RPS6, with a focus on its involvement in cancer. We also discussed the therapeutic potential of RPS6 in cancer.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6), which occurs in response to a wide variety of stimuli on five evolutionarily conserved serine residues, has attracted much attention since its discovery more than three decades ago. However, despite a large body of information on the respective kinases and the signal transduction pathways, the role of this phosphorylation remained obscure. It is only recent that targeting the genes encoding rpS6, the phosphorylatable serine residues or the respective kinases that the unique role of rpS6 and its posttranslational modification have started to be elucidated. This review focuses primarily on the critical role of rpS6 for mouse development, the pathways that transduce various signals into rpS6 phosphorylation, and the physiological functions of this modification. The mechanism(s) underlying the diverse effects of rpS6 phosphorylation on cellular and organismal physiology has yet to be determined. However, a model emerging from the currently available data suggests that rpS6 phosphorylation operates, at least partly, by counteracting positive signals simultaneously induced by rpS6 kinase, and thus might be involved in fine-tuning of the cellular response to these signals.

Abstract
Dysregulated cell growth can be caused by increased activity of protein synthesis eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4E. Dysregulated cell growth is also characteristic of atherosclerosis. It is postulated that exposure of vascular cells, such as endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and monocytes/macrophages, to oxidants, such as oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), leads to the elaboration of growth factors and cytokines, which in turn results in smooth muscle cell hyperproliferation. To investigate whether activation of eIF4E might play a role in this hyperproliferative response, vascular cells were treated with oxLDL, oxidized lipid components of oxLDL and several model oxidants, including H(2)O(2) and dimethyl naphthoquinone. Exposure to each of these compounds led to a dose- and time-dependent increase in eIF4E phosphorylation in all three types of vascular cells, correlated with a modest increase in overall translation rate. No changes in eIF4EBP, eIF2 or eIF4B modification state were observed. Increased eIF4E phosphorylation was paralleled by increased presence of eIF4E in high-molecular-mass protein complexes characteristic of its most active form. Anti-oxidants at concentrations typically employed to block oxidant-induced cell signalling likewise promoted eIF4E phosphorylation. The results of this study indicate that increased eIF4E activity may contribute to the pathophysiological events in early atherogenesis by increasing the expression of translationally inefficient mRNAs encoding growth-promoting proteins.

Abstract
Eukaryotic initiation factor eIF4E-binding protein 1 (eIF4E-BP1), or PHAS-I, is multiply phosphorylated by insulin-stimulated protein kinase(s). Estimates for the number of phosphorylation sites range from two to greater than eight. IEF/SDS/PAGE can precisely differentiate protein isoforms based on their differences in charge (phosphorylation) and molecular mass. In this study, the diversity of eIF4E-BP1 isoforms was determined using IEF/SDS/PAGE/immunoblotting of unfractionated cell lysates. To investigate the molecular regulation of phosphorylation, alterations in eIF4E-BP1 in response to heat shock in HeLa cells were determined. In exponentially growing cells, 8-10 prominent eIF4E-BP1 isoforms were detected. Following heat shock, a rapid, temperature-dependent dephosphorylation of eIF4E-BP1 occurs roughly concurrent with protein synthesis inhibition; during recovery from heat shock rephosphorylation of eIF4E-BP1 parallels restoration of protein synthesis. However, eIF4E-BP1 and eIF4E kinases remain highly active during heat shock, as okadaic acid treatment restores phosphorylation of both factors in heat shocked cells. eIF4E-BP1 dephosphorylation is associated with eIF4E dissociation from large molecular mass complexes and increased binding to eIF4E-BP1. The amount of eIF4E-BP1 converted to the dephosphorylated state is sufficient to titrate all the eIF4E present. eIF4E-BP1 phosphorylation changes regulated by heat shock also occur in Drosophila. Of the 10 isoforms of eIF4E-BP1 resolved by IEF/SDS/PAGE, at least seven are labelled with [32P] and all 10 are recognized by (eIF4E-BP1)-specific antibodies. These results identify a complex set of eIF4E-BP1 phosphorylation isoforms; changes in the expression of these isoforms in response to stresses such as heat shock may contribute to translation repression.

Abstract
Overexpression of the gene encoding the 70-kDa heat shock protein (hsp70) has previously been shown to protect neuronal cells against subsequent thermal or ischemic stress. It has no protective effect, however, against stimuli that induce apoptosis, although a mild heat shock (sufficient to induce hsp synthesis) does have a protective effect against apoptosis. We have prepared disabled herpes simplex virus-based vectors that are able to produce high level expression of individual hsps in infected neuronal cells without damaging effects. We have used these vectors to show that hsp27 and hsp56 (which have never previously been overexpressed in neuronal cells) as well as hsp70 can protect dorsal root ganglion neurons from thermal or ischemic stress. In contrast, only hsp27 can protect dorsal root ganglion neurons from apoptosis induced by nerve growth factor withdrawal, and hsp27 also protects the ND7 neuronal cell line from retinoic acid-induced apoptosis. However, hsp70 showed no protective effect against apoptosis in contrast to its anti-apoptotic effect in non-neuronal cell types. These results thus identify hsp27 as a novel neuroprotective factor and show that it can mediate this effect when delivered via a high efficiency viral vector.

Abstract
Various factors are involved in the heat shock-induced inhibition of protein synthesis. Changes upon heat shock in phosphorylation, leading to inactivation, of eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) eIF2 and eIF4E have been shown for several cell types. However, in mammalian cells these changes occur at temperatures of 43 degrees C or higher while protein synthesis is already affected at milder heat shock temperatures. In searching for the cause for the inhibition of protein synthesis, the regulation of eIF2 and eIF4E by additional factors was analyzed. In this respect, the activity of eIF2B was measured during and after heat shock. A very clear correlation was found between the activity of this guanine exchange factor and the levels of protein synthesis, also at mild heat shock conditions. Changes in the phosphorylation of eIF4E and of the eIF4E-binding protein PHAS-I were also analyzed. Surprisingly, in H35 cells as well as in some other cell lines, PHAS-I phosphorylation was increased by heat shock, whereas in others it was decreased. Therefore, decreasing the eIF4E availability under stressful conditions does not seem to be a general mechanism to inhibit protein synthesis by heat shock. Regulation of eIF2B activity appears to be the main mechanism to control translation initiation after heat shock at mild temperatures.

Abstract
Stathmin is a ubiquitous, highly conserved 19-kDa cytoplasmic protein whose expression and phosphorylation are regulated in relation to cell proliferation, differentiation or activation, in many biological systems. In this report, we show that stathmin undergoes major phosphorylation in HeLa cells submitted to heat or chemical stress. Heat-shock-induced stathmin phosphorylation was very rapid, as maximal incorporation of phosphate was observed at 5 min. Phosphorylation of stathmin might, therefore, occur as a very early step in the intracellular response to heat shock. The sites of phosphorylation of stathmin involved during the stress response were identified as mostly Ser25 and, to a lesser extent, Ser38. These sites are both followed by a proline residue, and known to be good substrates in vitro for mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP-kinase) and p34cdc2 kinase, respectively. In lysates from heat-shocked cells, an increased stathmin-kinase activity, distinct from the histone-H1-kinase activity, was found to phosphorylate stathmin mostly on Ser25, the main site for MAP-kinase in vitro. This stathmin-kinase coeluted quantitatively with the stress-activated MAP-kinase from an FPLC MonoQ column. Furthermore, a stathmin kinase activity was precipitated from lysates of heat-shocked HeLa cells by an anti-(MAP-kinase) serum. Together, these results indicate that the phosphorylation of stathmin by MAP-kinase is likely to be a significant component of the signalling array controlling the cellular response to stress, and they further underline the general involvement of stathmin in intracellular signalling.

Abstract
All organisms from bacteria to man respond to an exposure to higher than physiological temperatures by reprogramming their gene expression, leading to the increased synthesis of a unique set of proteins termed heat shock proteins (hsps). The hsps function as molecular chaperones in both normal and stressed cells. The rapid and efficient synthesis of hsps is achieved as a result of changes occurring at gene transcription, RNA processing and degradation, and mRNA translation. With regard to the translational regulation, the emerging picture is that the two key steps of polypeptide chain initiation, namely mRNA binding and Met-tRNA(i) binding to ribosomes, are regulated in heat-shocked mammalian cells. In Drosophila, mRNA binding is regulated by a structural feature of the leader of heat shock mRNAs and by the inactivation of eukaryotic initiation factor- (eIF-) 4F. No clear evidence for changes in Met-tRNA(i) binding has been obtained yet.

Abstract
Characteristic changes in vimentin were studied in 9L rat brain tumor cells treated at 45 degrees C. During heat-shock treatment, vimentin molecules were rapidly phosphorylated and reorganized from a filamentous form into a perinuclear higher-order structure that was less extractable by nonionic detergent. These effects were found to be highly transient, peaked at 30 min after the onset of heat-shock treatment, and subsided thereafter. Simultaneously, the solubility of the constitutively expressed heat-shock protein 70 (HSC70) was also temporarily decreased and the kinetics was identical to that of vimentin. The results indicated that HSC70 and vimentin were co-insolubilized during the heat-shock treatment. We propose that the reorganization of the intermediate filaments resulted from enhanced phosphorylation of vimentin leads to the concurrent association of HSC70 to the intermediate filaments. This process may play an essential role in regulating heat-shock genes.

Abstract
In numerous cases of signal transduction, the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP kinases) or extracellular regulated kinases (ERKs) are found to be activated by phosphorylations which result in electrophoretic mobility changes. Activities of MAP kinases in cytosolic extracts can also be monitored by the capacity of such extracts to phosphorylate myelin basic protein. These two assays were used to demonstrate that MAP kinases were rapidly activated during heat shock of both quiescent and exponentially growing mammalian (hamster, rat, mouse and human) cells. Thus, the MAP kinase cascade is likely to also ensure heat-shock signal transduction and contribute to the regulation of the complex array of metabolic changes designated as the heat-shock response.

Abstract
Induction of heat-shock proteins and glucose-regulated proteins in 9L rat brain tumor cells can be differentially elicited by sodium arsenite, cadmium chloride, zinc chloride, copper sulfate, sodium fluoride, and L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid. The kinds of stress protein induced by the above chemicals varied considerably, mainly determined by the nature and the concentration of the chemicals, as well as the treatment protocols. In addition, at the concentrations where stress proteins can be induced, the above chemicals were able to suppress general protein synthesis and were cytotoxic. Enhanced phosphorylation of a protein with an apparent molecular weight of 65 kDa was detected during the induction of stress proteins except in azetidine treatments during which uptake of phosphate by the cells was impaired after prolonged incubation. The phosphate moiety on the 65 kDa phosphoprotein appeared to be alkaline-stable and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that the phosphoprotein resolved into four isoforms with isoelectric points ranging from 5.1 to 5.6. Enhanced phosphorylation of the same protein was also detected in heat-shocked and withangulatin A-treated 9L cells in which stress proteins were induced. It is suggested that this phosphoprotein may be a common target for heat stress response-stimulated phosphorylation and important in the further metabolic responses of the cell to stress.

Abstract
Exposure of mammalian cells to hyperthermia is known to cause protein aggregation in the nucleus. The presence of such aggregates has been detected as the relative increase in the protein mass that is associated with nuclei isolated from heated cells. We have characterized these excess nuclear proteins from the nuclei of heated HeLa cells by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The abundance of cytoskeletal elements which co-purify with the nuclei did not increase with exposure to hyperthermia, indicating that these proteins are not part of the excess nuclear proteins. In contrast, several specific polypeptides become newly bound or increase in abundance in nuclei isolated from heated cells. Members of the hsp 70 family were identified as a major component of the excess nuclear proteins. Among the other excess nuclear proteins we identified ten that had apparent molecular weights of 130, 95, 75, 58, 53, 48, 46, 37, 28, and 26 kilodaltons. Since hsp 70 is mainly cytoplasmic in non-heated cells, its association with nuclei in heated cells indicates that one mechanism accounting for the heat-induced excess nuclear proteins is the movement of cytoplasmic proteins to the nucleus. We also obtained evidence that increased binding of nuclear proteins is another mechanism for this effect. No overall increase or decrease in the phosphorylation of nuclear proteins was found to be associated with such altered binding or movement from the cytoplasm to the nucleus.

Abstract
When bacterial or eukaryotic cells are exposed to high temperatures or other harsh conditions, they respond by synthesis of a specific set of heat-shock proteins. Certain heat-shock proteins such as groEL, called 'chaperonins', can prevent misfolding and promote the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under harmful conditions. We report here a new aspect of the heat-shock response in Escherichia coli: at high temperatures a fraction of groEL becomes modified covalently, altering its interaction with unfolded proteins. The heat-modified form can be eluted with ATP from an unfolded protein more easily than normal groEL. The critical heat-induced modification seems to be phosphorylation, which is reversed on return to low temperature. Treatment of the modified groEL with phosphatases caused its apparent size, charge and binding properties to resemble those of the unmodified form. Thus during heat shock some groEL is reversibly phosphorylated, which allows its ATP-dependent release from protein substrates in the absence of its usual cofactor (groES), and probably promotes the repair of damaged polypeptides.

Abstract
1. Sea mussels were exposed to cadmium for short periods of time. The excised gills were incubated with radioactive orthophosphate. The gill proteins were separated by 1- and 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis and the phosphorylation state of the proteins was determined by image analysis of autoradiographs. 2. 1-Dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that exposure of the animals to cadmium stimulated phosphorylation of the gill proteins in a cadmium concentration-dependent manner. 3. 2-Dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that cadmium differentially affected the phosphorylation of various proteins. Major alterations were observed in the basic, high mol. wt proteins and in the acidic, low mol. wt polypeptides.

Abstract
Changes in protein kinase activities are thought to contribute to the alteration of gene expression after heat shock and related stresses. In an attempt to identify enzymes which might be involved in both chromatin structure modification and transcriptional switch in heat-shocked cells, we have studied protein kinase activities in heat-shocked cell lysates with two exogenous substrates: a tetramer of a heptapeptide (heptapeptide 4) corresponding to the RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain (CTD), and the histone H1. Heat-shock and arsenite stress were found to stimulate strongly CTD kinase activity. H1 kinase activity was also stimulated but more weakly. Stimulation of CTD and H1 kinases occurs mainly at the early phase of recovery and by a process which is independent of protein synthesis. The stress-induced H1 kinase is shown to contain a molecule related to the mitotic-promoting factor (MPF) Cdc2 component. On the other hand, though Cdc2-related protein has also been reported to be part of a CTD kinase complex, we show that the stress-induced CTD kinase activity corresponds to a distinct entity. It is proposed that stress activation of CTD kinase might be involved in changing the specificity of RNA polymerase II.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of various proteins and the activities of specific kinases were studied in tumour cells after hyperthermia. P388 lymphoid tumour cells were treated at 40-45 degrees C for 1 h in vitro. Immediately after heat treatment, particulate and cytosol cell fractions were isolated, phosphorylated proteins separated and various kinase activities were measured. Hyperthermic treatment of the cells caused a significant decrease in protein kinase C activity while the activity of calcium-ion and phospholipid-independent protein kinases increased. Phosphorylation of cytosol proteins of 120, 80, 33, 25 and 14 kDa increased significantly after hyperthermia, and protein kinase C selectively phosphorylated the last three of these proteins. The phosphorylation of three heat shock proteins (44, 70 and 85 kDa) was not changed after hyperthermic treatment. Four tyrosine kinase activities were separated. The protein tyrosine kinase activity decreased to one-tenth of the control value after 45 degrees C for 1 h hyperthermia. The changes in kinase activities and protein phosphorylation induced by hyperthermia proved to be temperature- and time-dependent.

Abstract
Infection of tissue culture cells with certain viruses results in the shutoff of host cell protein synthesis. We have examined virally infected cell lysates using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting to ascertain whether initiation factor protein modifications are correlated with translational repression. Moderate increases in eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)-2 alpha phosphorylation are detected in reovirus- and adenovirus-infected cells, as reported previously (Samuel et al., 1984; O'Malley et al., 1989). Neither vesicular stomatitis virus, vaccinia virus, frog virus III, rhinovirus, nor encephalomyocarditis virus caused significantly increased 2 alpha phosphorylation. There were no reproducible, significant changes in eIF-4A, eIF-4B, or eIF-2 beta in cells infected by any of these viruses. The cleavage of eIF-4F subunit p220, such as has been previously demonstrated to occur in poliovirus (Etchison et al., 1982) and rhinovirus (Etchison and Fout, 1985), was not detected in any of the other virus infections analyzed.

Abstract
hsp82 is one of the most highly conserved and abundantly synthesized heat shock proteins of eucaryotic cells. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains two closely related genes in the HSP82 gene family. HSC82 was expressed constitutively at a very high level and was moderately induced by high temperatures. HSP82 was expressed constitutively at a much lower level and was more strongly induced by heat. Site-directed disruption mutations were produced in both genes. Cells homozygous for both mutations did not grow at any temperature. Cells carrying other combinations of the HSP82 and HSC82 mutations grew well at 25 degrees C, but their ability to grow at higher temperatures varied with gene copy number. Thus, HSP82 and HSC82 constitute an essential gene family in yeast cells. Although the two proteins had different patterns of expression, they appeared to have equivalent functions; growth at higher temperatures required higher concentrations of either protein. Biochemical analysis of hsp82 from vertebrate cells suggests that the protein binds to a variety of other cellular proteins, keeping them inactive until they have reached their proper intracellular location or have received the proper activation signal. We speculate that the reason cells require higher concentrations of hsp82 or hsc82 for growth at higher temperatures is to maintain proper levels of complex formation with these other proteins.

Abstract
The 90 kDa heat shock protein (hsp 90) is a major phosphorylated protein under normal growth conditions. However, it does not incorporate detectable levels of phosphate by incubation of control HeLa cell lysates with [gamma-32P]ATP in vitro. In this paper we show that strong phosphorylation of hsp 90 occurs in lysates prepared from heat shocked HeLa cells. Possible involvement of the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 kinase of the heme-controlled repressor of translation is discussed.

Abstract
Changes in phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 during heat shock, induction of thermotolerance and recovery from heat shock at different stages of Blastocladiella emersonii development were investigated. Independently of the initial state of S6 phosphorylation (maximal or intermediate), a rapid and complete dephosphorylation of S6 is induced by heat shock and S6 remains unphosphorylated during the acquired thermotolerance. During recovery from heat shock rephosphorylation of S6 occurs always to the levels characteristic of that particular stage, coincidently with the turn off of heat shock protein synthesis.

Abstract
If confluent fibroblasts are infected with the swine alpha-herpes virus, pseudorabies virus, ribosomal protein S6 becomes phosphorylated after a lag of approximately 2 h. When cell-free extracts were prepared from such cells in the presence of glycerol 2-phosphate and EGTA, a ribosomal protein S6 kinase activity was found to appear at approximately the same time as the phosphorylation in vivo. This protein kinase was similar to that activated in the same cells by replenishing the nutrient medium, and in other quiescent cells by the action of growth factors and mitogens. It was distinct from the previously described pseudorabies virus protein kinase, which is unique to infected cells. When medium from cells infected with pseudorabies virus was freed of virus and added to confluent fibroblasts, rapid activation of the ribosomal protein S6 kinase activity occurred. A similar, although more limited, effect could be seen when the pH of the medium was increased. These results suggest that the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 in cells infected with herpes virus is a consequence of the production of a factor which initiates the metabolic programme for cellular growth. The possible function of this effect in the infective strategy of herpes viruses is discussed in relation to requirements for the replication of viral DNA.

Abstract
Heat shock or Sindbis virus infection of chick embryo (CE) or baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells resulted in a decrease in the uptake of 86Rubidium+, a K+ tracer. Both stressful treatments decreased 86Rb+ uptake by inhibition of the ouabain-sensitive Na+/K+ ATPase. Alterations in the intracellular levels of monovalent ions may be involved in translational or transcriptional control of the stress response. Heat shock or Sindbis virus infection also resulted in an increase in rate of uptake of [3H]deoxy-D-glucose and a decrease in the incorporation of [3H]glucosamine or [3H]mannose into most cellular proteins. These results suggested that heat shock or Sindbis virus infection alter hexose metabolism and that abnormally glycosylated proteins may accumulate in stressed cells. Exposure of uninfected chick embryo cells to elevated temperature had little effect on the overall rate of incorporation of [32P]orthophosphate into cellular proteins. However, one protein (Mr 31,000; pp31) displayed increased incorporation of [32P]orthophosphate and two other proteins (Mr 33,000 and 20,000; pp33 and pp20) displayed decreased incorporation. Sindbis virus infection failed to mimic or to modify these heat shock induced alterations in protein phosphorylation.

Abstract
When BHK cells were grown to confluence and the growth medium replenished, there was a large and rapid increase in the phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6. In postribosomal extracts of these cells, prepared in the presence of glycerol 2-phosphate and EGTA, a ribosomal protein S6 kinase was detected. The increase in activity of this protein kinase broadly reflected the increase in phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 observed in vivo. This ribosomal protein S6 kinase activity was substantially purified by a combination of phosphocellulose, DEAE-cellulose, Mono Q and heparin-Sepharose chromatography, and some of its characteristics were examined. When the products of phosphorylation of 40S ribosomal subunits by purified enzyme in vitro were analysed using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, monophosphorylated and diphosphorylated forms of ribosomal protein S6 were observed to be the predominant radioactively labelled species.

Abstract
Decreases in energy charge, ribosomal protein phosphorylation and rate of protein synthesis are well-documented facets of the cellular response to hyperthermia in non-vertebrates. We have tried to reproduce this response pattern in 32P-labelled HeLa cells in order to investigate the hypothetical causal relationship between these effects. In HeLa cells shifted from 36 degrees C to 42 degrees C, dephosphorylation of S6 and inhibition of protein synthesis, owing to a decreased initiation rate, were observed, but could not have been mediated by changes in the cells' general energy charge since the ATP and GTP levels were not reduced. In addition, we found that the hyperthermic translation block developed faster than the overall dephosphorylation of S6, showing that S6 dephosphorylation cannot be responsible for the translation block unless site-specific effects play a critical role.

Abstract
In the filamentous fungus Achlya ambisexualis, heat shock resulted in a rapid reduction in the rate of protein synthesis. This was accompanied by dephosphorylation of a prominent basic 30 kD protein associated with the small subunit of Achlya ribosomes and which may be analogous to ribosomal protein S6 of vertebrates. A large ribosomal subunit protein with a relative molecular weight (MW) of 24,500 exhibited increased phosphorylation during heat shock, while a second large subunit protein having a relative MW of 22,000 was dephosphorylated. Several proteins which could be dissociated from Achlya ribosomes by 0.5 M KCl also exhibited altered patterns of phosphorylation during heat shock. These KCl-soluble proteins included proteins at 50, 21, 20 and 19 kD, which exhibited decreased phosphorylation with heat shock and proteins at 32 and 23.5 kD, which exhibited increased phosphorylation with heat shock. Such alterations in the phosphorylation of components of the Achlya translational apparatus may be involved in the qualitative and quantitative changes in protein synthesis which are observed with heat shock in Achlya.

Abstract
After a nonlethal but heat shock protein-inducing hyperthermic treatment, ribosomes isolated from Tetrahymena thermophila contained an additional 22-kilodalton protein (p22). When maximally ribosome associated, this protein was found to be on the small subunit in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio with other ribosomal proteins. Using an antiserum directed against the purified 22-kilodalton protein, we found that non-heat-shocked and heat-shocked cells contain identical amounts of this protein, the only difference being that in the stressed cells p22 is entirely ribosome bound, whereas in the unstressed cells p22 has little or no detectable ribosome association. Because the two-dimensional electrophoretic properties of p22 showed no alterations after heat shock, this change in state of ribosome-p22 interaction does not appear to be caused by a chemical modification of p22. When not strongly ribosome associated, p22 is not found free in the cytoplasm. During that time in heat shock when p22 is first becoming ribosome associated, it is found preferentially on polysomal ribosomes. Subsequently, all ribosomes, whether polysome bound or not, obtain a bound p22. The functional significance of this association is discussed.

Abstract
Agents which induce heat shock protein synthesis in cultured monolayers of Hela cells such as hyperthermia, ethanol and sodium arsenite can also cause increases in the levels of lipid peroxidation as determined by the formation of TBA-products. The heat induced increases may be diminished by addition to the medium of mannitol or EGTA. These compounds are known to depress heat shock protein synthesis. Following hyperthermia there is also a decrease in protein synthesis. In vitro studies indicate possible damage to ribosomes, and since the heat induced loss of protein synthetic capacity can be increased by superoxide dismutase inhibitors, and prevented by mannitol, such effects may be linked to the increases observed in lipid peroxidation. It is suggested that a connection exists between lipid peroxidation and heat shock protein gene activation.

Abstract
3-h pulses of elevated temperatures (30 degrees C, 35 degrees C, 40 degrees C) phase shift the circadian conidiation rhythm of Neurospora crassa. The phase and amplitude of the phase response curves (PRC) were measured in wild type (frq+) and frequency mutants (frq 1, frq 7). The dose dependence of the phase shifts was compared to the dose dependence of total protein synthesis inhibition and heat shock protein induction in the three strains. All processes showed an almost linear dependence on temperature. These experiments and other available data suggest that a temperature increase may act on the circadian rhythm by a process belonging to the heat shock response.
