Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 1A, X-Chromosomal (EIF1AX) Reagents

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A, X-chromosomal

Seems to be required for maximal rate of protein biosynthesis. Enhances ribosome dissociation into subunits and stabilizes the binding of the initiator Met-tRNA(I) to 40 S ribosomal subunits.

EIF-1A family

Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling

EIF1AX; EIF1A; EIF4C; Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A; X-chromosomal; eIF-1A X isoform; Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4C; eIF-4C

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.
