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 EMC effect in light and medium weight nuclei and nuclear matter can be accounted for in the region 0.2 {le} x {le} 0.5, but a systematic discrepancy between theory and experiment remains to be explained for 0.5 {le} x {le} 0.9.
