The translation initiation factor homolog eif4e1c regulates cardiomyocyte metabolism and proliferation during heart regeneration
24 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
The eIF4E family of translation initiation factors bind 5' methylated caps and act as the limiting step for mRNA translation. The canonical eIF4E1A is required for cell viability, yet other related eIF4E families exist and are utilized in specific contexts or tissues. Here, we describe a family called Eif4e1c, for which we find roles during heart development and regeneration in zebrafish. The Eif4e1c family is...
