• Function: RNA-binding component of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is required for several steps in the initiation of protein synthesis. The eIF-3 complex associates with the 40S ribosome and facilitates the recruitment of eIF-1, eIF-1A, eIF-2:GTP:methionyl-tRNAi and eIF-5 to form the 43S pre-initiation complex (43S PIC). The eIF-3 complex stimulates mRNA recruitment to the 43S PIC and scanning of the mRNA for AUG recognition. The eIF-3 complex is also required for disassembly and recycling of post-termination ribosomal complexes and subsequently prevents premature joining of the 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits prior to initiation. The eIF-3 complex specifically targets and initiates translation of a subset of mRNAs involved in cell proliferation, including cell cycling, differentiation and apoptosis, and uses different modes of RNA stem-loop binding to exert either translational activation or repression.

Unusual Activation of Pro-survival Pathway (UAPP)

Disease Class: Non-small cell lung cancer [1]

• Resistant Disease: Non-small cell lung cancer [ICD-11: 2C25.Y]
• Resistant Drug: Cisplatin
• Molecule Alteration: Expression; Down-regulation
• Experimental Note: Revealed Based on the Cell Line Data
• Cell Pathway Regulation: NER signaling pathway; Activation; hsa03420
• In Vitro Model: A549 cells; Lung; Homo sapiens (Human); CVCL_0023
• In Vitro Model: H1299 cells; Lung; Homo sapiens (Human); CVCL_0060
• In Vitro Model: Sk-MES-1 cells; Lung; Homo sapiens (Human); CVCL_0630
• In Vitro Model: A549/DDP cells; Lung; Homo sapiens (Human); CVCL_0023
• Experiment for Molecule Alteration: Western blot analysis
• Experiment for Drug Resistance: MTT assay; Cell Titer 96 AQueous One Solution Assay; Annexin V FITC Apoptosis assay; Clone formation assay
• Mechanism Description: miRNA-488 inhibited eIF3a expression by directly binding to the 3'UTR of eIF3a, the overexpression of miRNA-488 inhibited cell migration and invasion in A549 cells, and also inhibited cell proliferation, cell cycle progression by elevated P27 expression. The mechanism of miRNA-488 induced cisplatin resistance was that miRNA-488 activated nucleotide excision repair (NER) by increasing the expression of Replication Protein A (RPA) 14 and Xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC).
