Bm1_08615

Gene
Bm1_08615
Protein
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit G
Organism
Brugia malayi
Length
287 amino acids
Function
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. This subunit can bind 18S rRNA.
Similarity
Belongs to the eIF-3 subunit G family.
