Crystal structure of the full length eIF5A from Saccharomyces cerevisiaeCrystal structure of the full length eIF5A from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Structural highlights
3er0 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
IF5A1_YEAST mRNA-binding protein involved in translation elongation. Has an important function at the level of mRNA turnover, probably acting downstream of decapping. Involved in actin dynamics and cell cycle progression, mRNA decay and probably in a pathway involved in stress response and maintenance of cell wall integrity. Essential for polarized growth, a process necessary for G1/S transition. May mediate large range of effects of the polyamine spermidine in the cell.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
