This review explores how tRNA modifications emerge as critical players, fine-tuning functionalities that not only maintain the fidelity of protein synthesis but also dictate gene expression and translation profiles. Highlighting their dysregulation as a common denominator in various cancers, we systematically investigate the intersection of both cytosolic and mitochondrial tRNA modifications with cancer biology. These modifications impact key processes such as cell proliferation, tumorigenesis, migration, metastasis, bioenergetics and the modulation of the tumor immune microenvironment. The recurrence of altered tRNA modification patterns across different cancer types underscores their significance in cancer development, proposing them as potential biomarkers and as actionable targets to disrupt tumorigenic processes, offering new avenues for precision medicine in the battle against cancer.  \nGraphical abstract  \ntRF biogenesis  Degradation  Codon bias/aa  \nrecognition  \nHomeostasis Cancer  \n Overexpression   \nOncogenesis  \nIntroduction  \nProtein synthesis is a highly preserved mechanism that involves the assembly of amino acids on ribosomes according to an messenger RNA (mRNA) template sequence. Translational control is crucial in modulating gene expression. Its significance extends to defining the proteome, ensuring homeostasis and governing cell proliferation, growth and development. Dysregulation of protein synthesis lies at the core of numerous diseases, underscoring the crucial need to understand the molecular foundations and intricate mechanisms of translational control (1) .  \nGenerally, protein synthesis is divided into three major steps: initiation, elongation and termination. The primary stage of regulation occurs during the recognition and decoding of the AUG start codon, managed by the methionyl-tRNA specialized for initiation (tRNAiMet ) . In eukaryotes, a scanning mechanism is employed, where the small (40S) ribosomal subunit, loaded with tRNAiMet in a 43S pre-initiation complex  \n(PIC), together with the eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) eiF2-TC, eIF3, eIF1 and eIF5, attaches to the mRNA near the 5􀀂 end and scans the 5􀀂 -untranslated region (5􀀂UTR) to identify an AUG (or less frequently a near-cognate AUG) codon. The mRNA is activated for 43S binding by the formation of the translation initiation complex eIF4F (eIF4A, eIF4B, eIF4E and eIF4E), which recognizes the mRNA’s m7 G cap structure at the 5􀀂 end and interacts with poly(A) tail-binding protein (PABP) at the 3􀀂 end (2,3), forming the 48S ribosomal complex. Then, 60S ribosomes are recruited via eIF2-GTP activation, leaving the active 80S ribosomes to enter the extension phase (1). Then, protein elongation is produced by formation of a peptide bond of the aminoacyl-transfer RNAs complementary to the mRNA codon with the peptide attached to the ribosome P-site, followed by translocation of the ribosome. This process, promoted by distinct elongation factors and by the ribosome, is repeated until a termination codon enters the A-site, when termina","cbCaisGgNy5THR3y","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisGgNy5THR3y","pdf",1720497,"English","# Abstract\n## Introduction\n## Translational regulation in protein synthesis","[{\"question\":\"How do tRNA modifications influence translation in cancer?\",\"answer\":\"They act as critical regulators that fine-tune translation fidelity and also shape gene-expression and translation profiles.
