Gene information for EIF5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1983
Official gene symbolEIF5
Full nameeukaryotic translation initiation factor 5
Aliases,EIF-5A,
Gene summaryEukaryotic translation initiation factor-5 (EIF5) interacts with the 40S initiation complex to promote hydrolysis of bound GTP with concomitant joining of the 60S ribosomal subunit to the 40S initiation complex. The resulting functional 80S ribosomal initiation complex is then active in peptidyl transfer and chain elongations (summary by Si et al., 1996 [PubMed 8663286]).[supplied by OMIM]
