Abstract

Myc oncogenesis requires new proteins Barna et al. show that Myc-driven tumorigenesis is dependent on its ability to increase protein synthesis, as haploinsufficiency in ribosomal proteins decreases Myc-induced tumour formation. However, tumours caused by the loss of p53 were not affected. Myc stimulates cap-dependent protein translation at the expense of IRES-dependent translation, leading to the synthesis of a different set of proteins, and this effect is reversed by ribosomal protein haploinsufficiency. Of the proteins misregulated, Cdk11 is shown to be important for the effects of Myc on genomic instability that probably contributes to Myc-induced tumour formation.
