eif4e forms a key part of a complex that binds to a cap at the end of each mrna strand
Because this cap-binding function of eif4e has been considered so essential, the researchers thought other known players in translation must somehow be working overtime in the engineered mice to take up the slack for the reduction in eif4e.
Interestingly, the majority of mrnas produced by these genes contain a molecular signature near the cap that the researchers dubbed a ERT motif.
The group believes that in cancer cells eif4e is recruited selectively to certain mrna caps by the presence of the CERT motif
