CPEBs

Cytoplasmic polyadenylation elements (CPEs) are located in the 3-prime UTRs of hundreds of mRNAs involved in cell proliferation, chromosome segregation, and cell differentiation. CPEs function as docking sites for CPE-binding proteins (CPEBs), which can either repress or activate mRNA translation. CPEB4 activates mRNA translation by adding poly(A) tails to target mRNAs (Ortiz-Zapater et al., 2012).
