Mouse Gene Set: GOCC_EUKARYOTIC_TRANSLATION_INITIATION_FACTOR_3_COMPLEX

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOCC_EUKARYOTIC_TRANSLATION_INITIATION_FACTOR_3_COMPLEX

Standard name GOCC_EUKARYOTIC_TRANSLATION_INITIATION_FACTOR_3_COMPLEX
Systematic name MM11867
Brief description A complex of several polypeptides that plays at least two important roles in protein synthesis: First, eIF3 binds to the 40S ribosome and facilitates loading of the Met-tRNA/eIF2.GTP ternary complex to form the 43S preinitiation complex. Subsequently, eIF3 apparently assists eIF4 in recruiting mRNAs to the 43S complex. The eIF3 complex contains five conserved core subunits, and may contain several additional proteins; the non-core subunits are thought to mediate association of the complex with specific sets of mRNAs.
