Neuronal potassium channel activity triggers initiation of mRNA translation through binding of translation regulators
Taylor Joseph Malone, Jing Wu, Yalan Zhang…·Leonard K. Kaczmarek
The paper shows that Slack channel activation moves FMRP/CYFIP1 from eIF4E to the channel, releasing eIF4E and stimulating translation of β-actin mRNA and cortical β-actin.
