功能
function:Component of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is required for several steps in the initiation of protein synthesis. The eIF-3 complex associates with the 40S ribosome and facilitates the recruitment of eIF-1, eIF-1A, eIF-2:GTP:methionyl-tRNAi and eIF-5 to form the 43S preinitiation complex (43S PIC). The eIF-3 complex stimulates mRNA recruitment to the 43S PIC and scanning of the mRNA for AUG recognition. The eIF-3 complex is also required for disassembly and recycling of posttermination ribosomal complexes and subsequently prevents premature joining of the 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits prior to initiation.,mass spectrometry: PubMed:17322308,mass spectrometry: PubMed:18599441,PTM:Phosphorylated by TGF-beta type II receptor.,similarity:Belongs to the eIF-3 subunit I family.,similarity:Contains 5 WD repeats.,subunit:Component of the eukaryotic
