In eukaryotic cells, RNAs transcribed by RNA polymerase-II receive the modification at the 5' end. This structure is called the cap structure. The cap structure has a fundamental role for translation initiation by recruiting eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F (eIF4F). The other important mediator of the cap structure is a nuclear cap-binding protein complex (CBC). CBC consists of two proteins, which are renamed as NCBP1 and NCBP2 (previously called as CBP80/NCBP and CBP20/NIP1, respectively). This review article discusses the multiple roles CBC mediates and co-ordinates in several gene expression steps in eukaryotes.
