Overabundance of the eIF2–GTP–Met-tRNAi translational initiation complex has been linked to malignant transformation. N,N'-diarylurea chemical probes that block ternary complex assembly through heme-regulated inhibitor kinase activation validate translational initiation pathways as a potential anti-cancer targets.
