EIF1AX eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A X-linked [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1964)

Symbol: EIF1AX

Full name: eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A X-linked

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: EIF1A; EIF1AP1; EIF4C; eIF-1A; eIF-4C

Summary: This gene encodes an essential eukaryotic translation initiation factor. The protein is required for the binding of the 43S complex (a 40S subunit, eIF2/GTP/Met-tRNAi and eIF3) to the 5' end of capped RNA. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
