چکیده انگلیسی
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is universally expressed in many different neuronal and non-neuronal cells. Human NPY gene has two in-frame kozak sequences and thus, has potentially two translation initiation sites producing two NPY peptides with different molecular weights. In the present study, the intracellular location of NPY was studied in endothelial cells endogenously expressing NPY, and in neuronal (SK-N-BE) and non-neuronal (CHO-K1) cells transfected with NPY-GFP-constructs. By mutating kozak sequences we discovered that kozak-1 directs the NPY peptide to secretory vesicles, and kozak-2 is a prerequisite for mitochondrial targeting. If both kozak sequences are present, non-neuronal cells seem to benefit leaky scanning to initiate translation at both initiation sites, in contrast to neuronal cells, which prefer the kozak-1. This finding suggests that both the kozak sequences of NPY mRNA can be used in the translation depending on the cell type. The size and the function of the novel NPY fragment routed to mitochondria remains to be determined.
