EIF3D Antibody Blocking Peptide

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor-3 (eIF3)， the largest of the eIFs， is a multiprotein complex composed of at least ten nonidentical subunits. The complex binds to the 40S ribosome and helps maintain the 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits in a dissociated state. It is also thought to play a role in the formation of the 40S initiation complex by interacting with the ternary complex of eIF2/GTP/methionyl-tRNA， and by promoting mRNA binding. The protein encoded by this gene is the major RNA binding subunit of the eIF3 complex.
