The transcription factor CBFB suppresses breast cancer through orchestrating translation and transcription

CBFB is highly mutated in breast cancers and is known to interact with RUNX proteins to regulate transcription. Here, the authors describe a non-canonical role of CBFB in translation regulation in which it binds to mRNAs through hnRNPK, facilitating translation by eIF4B.
