Gene information for EIF3K (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27335
Official gene symbolEIF3K
Full nameeukaryotic translation initiation factor 3, subunit K
Aliases,ARG134,EIF3-p28,EIF3S12,HSPC029,M9,MSTP001,PLAC-24,PLAC24,PRO1474,PTD001,
Gene summaryThe 700-kD eukaryotic translation initiation factor-3 (eIF3) is the largest eIF and contains at least 12 subunits, including EIF2S12. eIF3 plays an essential role in translation by binding directly to the 40S ribosomal subunit and promoting formation of the 40S preinitiation complex (Mayeur et al., 2003 [PubMed 14519125]).[supplied by OMIM]
