Oncogenic Ras and Akt signaling contribute to glioblastoma formation by differential recruitment of existing mRNAs to polysomes.

abstract：:Recently, a novel family of TATA binding protein (TBP)-like factors (TLFs) have been described in metazoan organisms; however, their function has not yet been elucidated. Using Caenorhabditis elegans (Ce) as a model, we demonstrate that CeTLF is required in vivo for zygotic transcription during embryogenesis. Eliminat...
