In eukaryotes, mRNA translation is dependent on the cap-binding protein eIF4E. Through its simultaneous interaction with the mRNA cap structure and with the ribosome-associated eIF4G adaptor protein, eIF4E physically posits the ribosome at the 5' extremity of capped mRNA. eIF4E activity is regulated by phosphorylation on a unique site by the eIF4G-associated kinase MNK. eIF4E assembly with the ...
Translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) is a cytoplasmic cap-binding protein that is required for cap-dependent translation initiation. Here, we have shown that eIF4E is ubiquitinated primarily at Lys-159 and incubation of cells with a proteasome inhibitor leads to increased eIF4E levels, suggesting the proteasome-dependent proteolysis of ubiquitinated eIF4E. Ubiquitinated eIF4E retained its c...
eIF4E is the key regulator of protein translation and critical for translation. The oncogenic potential of tumorigenesis, which is highly contingent on cap-dependent eIF4E, also arises from the critical role in the nuclear export and cytosolic translation of oncogenic transcripts. Inhibition of Exportin1 (XPO1), which is the major nuclear export protein for eIF4E-bound oncoprotein mRNAs, result...
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) is the cap-binding protein that binds the 5' cap structure of cellular messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Despite the obligatory role of eIF4E in cap-dependent mRNA translation, how the translation activity of eIF4E is controlled remains largely undefined. Here, we report that mammalian eIF4E is regulated by SUMO1 (small ubiquitin-related modifier 1) con...
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) binds to the mRNA 5' cap and brings the mRNA into a complex with other protein synthesis initiation factors and ribosomes. The activity of mammalian eIF4E is important for the translation of capped mRNAs and is thought to be regulated by two mechanisms. First, eIF4E is sequestered by binding proteins, such as 4EBP1, in quiescent cells. Mitogen...
Abstract By interacting with the mRNA 5′ cap, translation initiation factor eIF4E plays a critical role in selecting mRNAs for protein synthesis eukaryotic cells. Caf20 is member of family proteins found across eukaryotes termed 4E-BPs, which compete eIF4G interaction eIF4E. independently interacts ribosomes. Thus, modulates selection process via poorly understood mechanisms. Here we performed ...
The eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4E is dysregulated in a wide variety of human cancers. In the cytoplasm, eIF4E acts in the rate-limiting step of translation initiation whereas in the nucleus, eIF4E forms nuclear bodies and promotes the nucleo-cytoplasmic export of a subset of growth-promoting mRNAs including cyclin D1. The only known post-translational modification of eIF4E is i...
Expression of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) is commonly elevated in human and experimental cancers, promoting angiogenesis and tumor growth. Elevated eIF4E levels selectively increase translation of growth factors important in malignancy (e.g., VEGF, cyclin D1) and is thereby an attractive anticancer therapeutic target. Yet to date, no eIF4E-specific therapy has been devel...
PURPOSE We have evaluated the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in breast cancer. eIF4E facilitates nuclear export and translation of specific, growth-stimulatory mRNAs and is frequently overexpressed in cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Breast cancer cells were treated with ribavirin, an inhibitor of eIF4E, and effects on cell proli...
Activation of translation initiation is essential for the malignant phenotype and is emerging as a potential therapeutic target. Translation is regulated by the expression of translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) as well as the interaction of eIF4E with eIF4E-binding proteins (e.g., 4E-BP1). Rapamycin inhibits translation initiation by decreasing the phosphorylation of 4E-BP1, increasing eIF...
