It is shown that if the effects of nucleon binding on deep inelastic scattering are considered within many-body realistic descriptions of nuclei which include nucleon-nucleon correlations, the European-Muon-Collaboration effect in light and medium weight nuclei and nuclear matter can be accounted for in the region 0.2{le}{ital x}{le}0.5, but a systematic discrepancy between theory and experiment remains to be explained for 0.5{le}{ital x}{le}0.9.
