EIF4E hypersensitive mRNA translation is characterized by long and structured untranslated regions
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Combining a genetic and pharmacological approach, we modulated eIF4E activity across its physiological activity range and identified subsets of genes whose translation was either hypo- or hyper- sensitive to eIF4E activity changes. eIF4E hypersensitive genes had longer 5'UTRs with higher GC content; and longer 3'UTRs with lower GC content and a higher density of unique microRNA target sites. Proliferation related genes were enriched among eIF4E hypersensitive genes; and consistent with this, decreasing eIF4E activity inhibited cell cycle transit. Our findings provide genome wide insights into the properties of mRNAs under translational control across the physiological range of eIF4E activity.
