Epigenetic activation of a subset of mRNAs by eIF4E explains its effects on cell proliferation.

BACKGROUND: Translation deregulation is an important mechanism that causes aberrant cell growth, proliferation and survival. eIF4E, the mRNA 5' cap-binding protein, plays a major role in translational control. To understand how eIF4E affects cell proliferation and survival, we studied mRNA targ...
