During postnatal development, the switch of the expression from isoform A1 to the isoform A2 of eukaryotic translation elongation factor (eEF1A) is observed in neuronal and muscle tissues. The switch of the expression is a vital fundamental process, as mutant mice, with the partial EEF1A2 deletion dies on the 28th day after birth. Mechanism of the inhibition of A1 and stimulation of A2 expression during the first days of postnatal development is unknown. The existence of potential miRNA binding sites in the 3’UTR of mRNAs encoding the isoforms assumes a post-transcriptional control of abovementioned phenomenon. Aim. To check the possibility of post-transcriptional regulation of the isoforms A1 and A2 expression during differentiation of the human immortalized myoblasts cell line LHCN. Methods. The level of gene expression was quantified by qPCR, the existence of post-transcriptional regulation was demonstrated with Dual-Luciferase® Reporter Assay. Results. Using immortalized human myoblasts cell line LHCN, the induction of isoform A2 of eEF1 during differentiation of myoblasts was shown. The existence of transcriptional and post-transcriptional control of the abovementioned process was confirmed. Downregulation of mir-661 and mir-744 that have binding sites in the 3’ UTR of EEF1A2 mRNA, during differentiation suggests a potential role of microRNAs in the eEF1A2 induction during myoblast differentiation. Conclusions. Induction of A2 isoform of eEF1 during differentiation of myoblasts occurs on transcriptional and post-transcriptional level. Keywords: eEF1A1, eEF1A2, immortalized human myoblasts LHCN, differentiation, microRNA.
