EIF4E-Structure and function-The other subunits of eIF4F are a 47-kD polypeptide, termed eIF4A, that possesses ATPase and RNA helicase activities, and a 220-kD scaffolding polypeptide, eIF4G.Some viruses cut eIF4G in such a way that the eIF4E binding site is removed and the virus is able to translate its proteins witho...

EIF4E-Structure and function-eIF4E is found in the nucleus of many mammalian cell types as well as in other species including yeast, drosophila and humans. eIF4E is found in nuclear bodies a subset of which colocalize with PML nuclear bodies, and eIF4E is additionally found diffusely in parts of the nucleoplasm in mamm...

EIF4E-Regulation-Since eIF4E is an initiation factor that is relatively low in abundance, eIF4E can be controlled at multiple levels. Regulation of eIF4E may be achieved at the levels of transcription, RNA stability phosphorylation, subcellular localization and partner proteins.a. Regulation of eIF4E by Gene Expression...

EIF4E-Regulation-Recent studies shown that eIF4E levels can be regulated at transcriptional level by NFkB and C/EBP. Interestingly, transduction of primary AML cells with IkB-SR resulted not only in reduction of eIF4E mRNA levels, but also re-localization of eIF4E protein. eIF4E mRNA stability are also regulated by HuR...
