To explore the regulation of eIF4E, we screened the protein interacting with eIF4E from human cDNA library by using yeast two-hybrid system. Several clones interacting with eIF4E were identified. One of them was homologous with HUWE1 (HECT, UBA and WWE domain containing 1, also named as ARF-BP1, HECTH9 or HUWE1). Cell co-immunoprecipitation showed that eIF4E could bind to HUWE1 in mammalian cells. We also found that HUWE1 bearing the HECT domain is necessary for its association with eIF4E.

Background: XB130, a classical adaptor protein, exerts a critical role in diverse cellular processes. Aberrant expression of XB130 is closely associated with tumorigenesis and aggressiveness. However, the mechanisms governing its expression regulation remain poorly understood.

Meat quality is a complex trait that exhibits significant variation across pig breeds, and the regulatory mechanisms governing pork meat quality are not fully elucidated. We compared the transcriptomics and metabolomics of the longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle between the Songliao Black Pig (SBP) and Large White × Landrace Pig (LWLDP) to investigate breed-specific differences in meat quality and underlying regulatory pathways. The results showed that SBP meat had a higher marbling score and backfat thickness, a richer color, a lower shear force, and reduced drip loss.

The importance of SUMOylation in tumorigenesis has received increasing attention, and research on therapeutic agents targeting this pathway has progressed. However, the potential function of SUMOylation during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we identified that SUMO-Specific Peptidase 3 (SENP3) was upregulated in HCC tissues and correlated with a poor prognosis.

Plant viruses need host factors to complete their life cycle. The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) and its isoforms are the host factors essential for infection by plant viruses in the genus Potyvirus. The present study describes the characterization of eIF4E gene in banana cultivar Nendran, and its interaction with the viral genome-linked protein (VPg) of banana bract mosaic virus (BBrMV).
