Gene Fusion and Overlapping Reading Frames in the Mammalian Genes for 4E-BP3 and MASK

4E-BP3 is a member of the eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4F-binding protein family of translational repressors. eIF4E-binding proteins (4E-BPs) inhibit translation initiation by sequestering eIF4E, the cap-binding protein, from eIF4G thus preventing ribosome recruitment to the mRNA. Previous analysis of 4E-BP3 expression uncovered an 8.5-kb mRNA variant of unknown origin. To study this splice variant, we determined the structure of the genomic locus encoding human 4E-BP3 (EIF4EBP3). EIF4EBP3 is located on human chromosome 5q31.3 and comprises three exons (A, B, and C) and two introns. Exon B contains the region of the open reading frame responsible for eIF4E binding. GenBank™ searches revealed multiple expressed sequence tags originating from the alternative splicing of exon B with unidentified upstream exons. Further studies revealed that the 8.5-kb transcript arises from the fusion of EIF4EBP3 with the mammalian homologue of Drosophila is for and the open reading frame of the transcript is from that of that exon B is an alternative reading fusion to that of and EIF4EBP3 for the of an alternative reading frame is for two and of the of mammalian and for the analysis of 4E-BP3 and eIF4E and of the a for the fusion 4E-BP3 is a member of the eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4F-binding protein family of translational repressors. eIF4E-binding proteins (4E-BPs) inhibit translation initiation by sequestering eIF4E, the cap-binding protein, from eIF4G thus preventing ribosome recruitment to the mRNA.
