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.

A specific arrangement of CPEs in mRNA can lead to the repression of the translation. In this case, the CPEB can form a dimer which could avoid the bound of the polyA polymerase complex in 2 different ways. It could prevent the association of ePAB with the polyA tail because CPEB recruits the deadenylase [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(A)-specific_ribonuclease PARN] which reduce the length of the polyA tail. It could disrupt the interaction between the binding factors of the translation [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EIF4E eIF4E] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EIF4G eIF4G] too, because CPEB recruits the protein Maskin which blocks eIF4G recruitment too<ref name="publi" />. This prevents the bound of the cap machinery to the mRNA and therefore inhibits the translation.
