CPEB controls the balance between senescence and proliferation. Indeed, due to its two structural domains in its C-terminal region, it has the capacity to modify mRNA[2]. | CPEB controls the balance between senescence and proliferation.

RRMs domains allow binding to the CPE sequence of mRNA (pyrimidine rich : UUUUUAU), thus ensuring good RNA positioning and high fidelity. | RRMs domains allow binding to the CPE sequence of mRNA (pyrimidine rich : UUUUUAU), thus ensuring good RNA positioning and high fidelity. | ||
Zing finger domains allow binding to different proteins, which play a role in affinity but not in specificity. It's therefore its ability to recruit different proteins that will determine its action, activation or repression of translation. | Zing finger domains allow binding to different proteins, which play a role in affinity but not in specificity.
