Abstract

The eIF4E-binding proteins (4E-BPs) are critical repressors of cap-dependent translation via mTOR, a pathway frequently hyperactivated in cancer. Here the authors show that 4E-BP3 specifically mediates the cap-dependent translation repression and antiproliferative effects of prolonged pharmacological mTOR inhibition.
