PUF (Pumilio/FBF) RNA-binding proteins and Argonaute (Ago) miRNA-binding proteins regulate mRNAs post-transcriptionally, each acting through similar yet distinct mechanisms. New genetic and biochemical analyses demonstrate that PUF and Ago proteins also function together in complex with elongation factor eEF1A to repress translation elongation.
