Bioinformatics, 1131 130 Mason Farm Road, Chapel Hill, NC, United States

David Fruman, PhD UC Irvine mTOR complex-1 (mTORC1) is a key regulator of B cell proliferation and differentiation. Elevated mTORC1 activity is also common in B cell cancers and is associated with poor prognosis. We have shown that eukaryotic initiation factor 4F (eIF4F) is a key mTORC1 effector pathway in the activation and differentiation of … Read more
