Human eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4G (eIF4G) recruits mnk1 to phosphorylate eIF4E.
PMID:9155017
In vitro, Mnk1 rapidly phosphorylates eIF-4E at the physiologically relevant site, Ser209
Phosphorylation of eIF-4E is believed to enhance its affinity for the 5'-cap

PMID:15563472
Interleukins 2 and 15 regulate Ets1 expression via ERK1/2 and MNK1 in human natural killer cells.
Phosphorylation by MNK1 serves to activate eIF4E.eIF4E induces translation of ETS1by recruiting mRNAs to the ribosome,
and upregulates ETS1 protein level.

Regulation of HIF-1a protein synthesis
MNK phosphorylates eIF-4E and stimulates its activity directly.
Active eIF-4E increases the rate of HIF1A-mRNA translation into HIF1A protein.
PMID:16887934
PMID:9159130
HIF-1B (ARNT) is constitutively expressed and itsmRNA and protein are maintained at constant levels regardless of oxygen availability
PMID:9278421
HIF-1A protein has a short half-life (t1/2 = 5 min) and is highly regulated by oxygen
PMID:9746763
The transcription and synthesis of HIF-1B are constitutive and seem not to be affected by oxygen.
PMID:7539918
In normoxia, the HIF-1A proteins are rapidly degraded, resulting in essentially no detectable HIF-1A protein.
PMID:8943284
During hypoxia, HIF-1A becomes stabilized and translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, where it dimerizes with HIF-1B and the HIF complex formed becomes transcriptionally active
PMID:1823643
The activated HIF complex then associates with HREs in the regulatory regions of target genes and binds the transcriptional coactivators to induce gene expression.
PMID:15451019
Tight regulation of the stability and subsequent transactivational function of HIF-1A is chiefly controlled by its post-translation modifications, such as hydroxylation, ubiquitination, acetylation, and phosphorylation
The modification of HIF-1A occurs within several domains.

PMID:12829734
In normoxia, hydroxylation of 2 proline residues and acetylation of a lysine residue in its ODDD promote interaction of HIF-1A with the von Hippel-Lindau (pVHL) ubiquitin E3 ligase complex (Srinivas et al., 1999; Masson et al., 2001).
PMID:12080085
pVHL complex tags HIF-1A with ubiquitin and thereby marks it for degradation by the 26S proteasome.
In addition, hydroxylation of an asparagine residue in the C-TAD inhibits the association of HIF-1A with CBP/p300 and thus inhibits its transcriptional activity (Lando et al., 2002a).
