Abstract
G3BP (Ras-GTPase-activating protein SH3 domain binding protein), a protein which binds to RasGAP SH3 domain, belongs to RNA-binding protein family, implicating in the downstream of Ras signaling. G3BP harbors the activities of endoribonuclease and DNA helicase, and can induce stress granules formation. G3BP plays a general role in the signal pathways of cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and RNA metabolism. It has been shown to be over-expressed in a number of human malignancies and has a close relationship with tumor invasion and metastasis. Given that it has been implicated in several pathways that are known to be involved in cancer biology, G3BP may provide a new target for cancer therapy.

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B (APSB) is a bimonthly English peer-reviewed online journal in ScienceDirect, which publishes significant original research articles, communications and high quality reviews of recent advances. APSB encourages submissions from all areas of pharmaceutical sciences, including pharmacology, pharmaceutics, medicinal chemistry, natural products, pharmacognosy, pharmaceutical analysis and pharmacokinetics.
APSB is a part of the series Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica, which was founded in 1953. The journal is co-published by Elsevier B.V., in association with the Institute of MateriaMedica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Chinese Pharmaceutical Association.
