Gene information for EIF3J (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID8669
Official gene symbolEIF3J
Full nameeukaryotic translation initiation factor 3, subunit J
Aliases,EIF3S1,eIF3-alpha,eIF3-p35,
Gene summaryEukaryotic initiation factor-3 (EIF3) has a molecular mass of about 600 kD and contains 13 nonidentical protein subunits, including EIF3J. EIF3 plays a central role in binding of initiator methionyl-tRNA and mRNA to the 40S ribosomal subunit to form the 40S initiation complex (Fraser et al., 2004 [PubMed 14688252]; Fraser et al., 2007 [PubMed 17588516]).[supplied by OMIM]
