Fatty Acid Synthase induced S6Kinase facilitates USP11-eIF4B complex formation for sustained oncogenic translation in DLBCL
Abstract
Aberrant protein translation and uncontrolled lipid metabolism are hallmarks of cancer growth. Here, in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, the authors show that fatty acid synthase increases USP11 interaction with and stability of eIF4B via PI3K-S6Kinase signaling, promoting oncogenic protein translation.
