| Type: | Family | Name: | Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit G |
| Description: | At least eleven different protein factors are involved in initiation of protein synthesis in eukaryotes. Binding of initiator tRNA and mRNA to the 40S subunit requires the presence of the translation initiation factors eIF-2 and eIF-3, with eIF-3 being particularly important for 80S ribosome dissociation and mRNA binding []. eIF-3 is the most complex translation inititation factor, consisting of about 13 putative subunits and having a molecular weight of between 550 - 700 kDa in mammalian cells. Subunits are designated eIF-3a - eIF-3m; the large number of subunits means that the interactions between the individual subunits that make up the eIF-3 complex are complex and varied []. Subunit G is required for eIF3 integrity. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit G (eIF3g) is a component of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is involved in protein synthesis and, together with other initiation factors, stimulates binding of mRNA and methionyl-tRNAi to the 40S ribosome [, ]. eIF3g can bind 18S rRNA []. | Short Name: | eIF3_g |
