CDK11B inhibits EIF3F. 1 / 1
1 |

"The interaction between cdk11p46 and eif3 p47 occurs in vitro and in vivo. In addition, cdk11 protein kinase isolated from cells undergoing apoptosis can phosphorylate eif3 p47in vitro, and serine phosphorylation of eif3 p47 occurs in cells during apoptosis.Purified recombinant cdk11p46 inhibited translation of a reporter gene in vitro in a dose-dependent manner.These data suggest that the function of the caspase-processed cdk11p110 isoform may be to inhibit translation during apoptosis. However, whether or not this inhibition of protein translation occurs in an eif3 p47-dependent or -independent manner remains to be clarified."
