== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IF4E1_CUCME IF4E1_CUCME] Component of the protein complex eIF4F, which is involved in the recognition of the mRNA cap, ATP-dependent unwinding of 5'-terminal secondary structure and recruitment of mRNA to the ribosome (PubMed:17026540, PubMed:28522457). Recognizes and binds the 7-methylguanosine-containing mRNA cap during an early step in the initiation of protein synthesis and facilitates ribosome binding by inducing the unwinding of the mRNAs secondary structures (PubMed:17026540, PubMed:28522457). Key component of recessive resistance to potyviruses and Tombusviridae genus Carmovirus such as melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV) (PubMed:17026540).<ref>PMID:17026540</ref> <ref>PMID:28522457</ref>   (Microbial infection) Susceptibility host factor required for viral infection by recruiting viral RNAs, including uncapped and non-polyadenylated RNA, to the host ribosomal complex via an interaction with viral genome-linked protein (VPg).<ref>PMID:17026540</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The association-dissociation of the cap-binding protein eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) with eIF4G is a key control step in eukaryotic translation. The paradigm on the eIF4E-eIF4G interaction states that eIF4G binds to the dorsal surface of eIF4E through a single canonical alpha-helical motif, while metazoan eIF4E-binding proteins (m4E-BPs) advantageously compete against eIF4G via bimodal interactions involving this canonical motif and a second noncanonical motif of the eIF4E surface. Metazoan eIF4Gs share this extended binding interface with m4E-BPs, with significant implications on the understanding of translation regulation and the design of therapeutic molecules. Here we show the high-resolution structure of melon (Cucumis melo) eIF4E in complex with a melon eIF4G peptide and propose the first eIF4E-eIF4G structural model for plants. Our structural data together with functional analyses demonstrate that plant eIF4G binds to eIF4E through both the canonical and noncanonical motifs, similarly to metazoan eIF4E-eIF4G complexes. As in the case of metazoan eIF4E-eIF4G, this may have very important practical implications, as plant eIF4E-eIF4G is also involved in a significant number of plant diseases. In light of our results, a universal eukaryotic bipartite mode of binding to eIF4E is proposed.
