Background
LIN28A/B are expressed in various cancers and ES cells. LIN28 is a cytoplasmic protein, that acts as a 'translational enhancer', driving specific mRNAs to polysomes and thus increasing the efficiency of protein synthesis. LIN28 is a negative regulator of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis by specifically binding the precursor of let-7 (pre-let-7). Let-7 miRNAs have been implicated in repression of oncogenes such as ras and myc. LIN28 expression decreases during differentiation of ES cells or upon induction of neuronal differentiation by retinoic acid.
