Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit A

UniProtKB accession:  A0A0J9X229

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  RNA-binding component of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is involved in protein synthesis of a specialized repertoire of mRNAs and, together with other initiation factors, stimulates binding of mRNA and methionyl-tRNAi to the 40S ribosome. The eIF-3 complex specifically targets and initiates translation of a subset of mRNAs involved in cell proliferation.
