Eukaryotic translation initiation factor EIF-4E is a key component in the regulation of translational efficiency of MRNAs and its increased expression may accelerate cell growth and division. EIF-4E has the potential to transform rat embryo fibroblast cells by cooperation with v-Myc or adenovirus E1A. Our previous study showed that a variety of tumor cells examined exhibited elevated levels of eIF-4E gene expression. Thus it is thought that overexpression of EIF-4E can result in aberrant growth and cell transformation.
