Overexpression of eEF1A2 protein up-regulates overall PI4K activity and cellular phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) generation in human cells. In addition, high-resolution analysis of genomic aberration by metaphase and comparative genomic hybridization array identify the involvement of the 20q region, suggesting the potential role of eEF1A2 as a candidate tumor gene in lung cancer cell lines (41) . eEF1A2 interacts directly with Prx-1 and protects the cells from stress-induced apoptosis by the down-regulation of caspase-3 and caspase-8 activation parallel to increased expression of the pro-survival factor Akt (76, 77) . Elongation factor 1 alpha interacts with phospho-Akt in breast cancer cells and regulates their proliferation, survival and motility Expression profile of eukaryotic translation factors in human cancer tissues and cell lines ./cache/cord-302514-rstvf3mc.txt ./txt/cord-302514-rstvf3mc.txt
