Cap-binding complex (CBC)
The 7mG (7-methylguanosine cap) formed on mRNA is fundamental to eukaryotic gene expression. Protein complexes recruited to 7mG mediate key processing events throughout the lifetime of the transcript. One of the most important mediators of 7mG functions is CBC (cap-binding complex). CBC has a key role in several gene expression mechanisms, including transcription, splicing, transcript export an...
متن کاملArs2 and the Cap-Binding Complex Team up for Silencing
In this issue, Sabin et al. (2009) and Gruber et al. (2009) reveal the protein Ars2 as a versatile regulator of RNA silencing. They show that Ars2 stimulates microRNA processing, contributes to antiviral resistance in flies, and is important for cell proliferation in mammals.
متن کاملTranslation initiation mediated by nuclear cap-binding protein complex
In mammals, cap-dependent translation of mRNAs is initiated by two distinct mechanisms: cap-binding complex (CBC; a heterodimer of CBP80 and 20)-dependent translation (CT) and eIF4E-dependent translation (ET). Both translation initiation mechanisms share common features in driving cap- dependent translation; nevertheless, they can be distinguished from each other based on their molecular featur...
متن کاملHeat shock impairs the interaction of cap-binding protein complex with 5' mRNA cap.
Cell-free protein synthesizing systems prepared from heat-shocked Ehrlich cells retain the inhibition of translation that is seen at the cellular level. Recently, we showed that a highly purified cap-binding protein complex composed of the p220 and p28 subunits of eukaryotic initiation factor 4F, in a 1:1 molar ratio, restores protein synthesis in these cell-free translation systems (Lamphear, ...
متن کاملSpecificity of recognition of mRNA 5' cap by human nuclear cap-binding complex.
The heterodimeric nuclear cap-binding complex (CBC) binds to the mono-methylated 5' cap of eukaryotic RNA polymerase II transcripts such as mRNA and U snRNA. The binding is important for nuclear maturation of mRNAs and possibly in the first round of translation and nonsense-mediated decay. It is also essential for nuclear export of U snRNAs in metazoans. We report characterization by fluorescen...
