{Abstract}: Upon oxidative stress, mammalian cells rapidly reprogram their translation. This is accompanied by the formation of stress granules (SGs), cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein condensates containing untranslated mRNA molecules, RNA-binding proteins, 40S ribosomal subunits, and a set of translation initiation factors. Here we show that arsenite-induced stress causes a dramatic increase in the stop-codon readthrough rate and significantly elevates translation reinitiation levels on uORF-containing and bicistronic mRNAs. We also report the recruitment of translation termination factors eRF1 and eRF3, as well as ribosome recycling and translation reinitiation factors ABCE1, eIF2D, MCT-1, and DENR to SGs upon arsenite treatment. Localization of these factors to SGs may contribute to a rapid resumption of mRNA translation after stress relief and SG disassembly. It may also suggest the presence of post-termination, recycling, or reinitiation complexes in SGs. This new layer of translational control under stress conditions, relying on the altered spatial distribution of translation factors between cellular compartments, is discussed.
