The centrosomal OFD1 protein interacts with the translation machinery and regulates the synthesis of specific targets

Abstract Protein synthesis is traditionally associated with specific cytoplasmic compartments. We now show that OFD1, a centrosomal/basal body protein, interacts with components of the Preinitiation complex of translation (PIC) and of the eukaryotic Initiation Factor (eIF)4F complex and modulates th...
