Critical Role for Cap-Independent c-MYC Translation in Progression of Multiple Myeloma
27 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
Dysregulated c-myc is a determinant of multiple myeloma progression. Translation of c-myc can be achieved by an mTOR-mediated, cap-dependent mechanism or a cap-independent mechanism where a sequence in the 5'UTR of mRNA, termed the internal ribosome entry site (IRES), recruits the 40S ribosomal subunit. This mechanism requires the RNA-binding factor hnRNP A1 (A1) and becomes critical when cap-dependent...
