FunFam 42919: Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit...

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 2 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Translation initiation factor activity GO:0003743
Functions in the initiation of ribosome-mediated translation of mRNA into a polypeptide.
1 P06103 (/IDA)
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
1 P06103 (/IPI)

There are 3 GO terms relating to "biological process"

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Cytoplasmic translational initiation GO:0002183
The process preceding formation of the peptide bond between the first two amino acids of a protein in the cytoplasm. This includes the formation of a complex of the ribosome, mRNA, and an initiation complex that contains the first aminoacyl-tRNA.
1 P06103 (/IDA)
Translational initiation GO:0006413
The process preceding formation of the peptide bond between the first two amino acids of a protein. This includes the formation of a complex of the ribosome, mRNA, and an initiation complex that contains the first aminoacyl-tRNA.

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 complex GO:0005852
A complex of several polypeptides that plays at least two important roles in protein synthesis: First, eIF3 binds to the 40S ribosome and facilitates loading of the Met-tRNA/eIF2.GTP ternary complex to form the 43S preinitiation complex. Subsequently, eIF3 apparently assists eIF4 in recruiting mRNAs to the 43S complex. The eIF3 complex contains five conserved core subunits, and may contain several additional proteins; the non-core subunits are thought to mediate association of the complex with specific sets of mRNAs.

1 P06103 (/IPI)
Cytoplasmic stress granule GO:0010494
A dense aggregation in the cytosol composed of proteins and RNAs that appear when the cell is under stress.
1 P06103 (/IDA)
Eukaryotic 48S preinitiation complex GO:0033290
A protein complex composed of the small ribosomal subunit, eIF3, eIF1A, methionyl-initiatior methionine and a capped mRNA. The complex is initially positioned at the 5'-end of the capped mRNA.
1 P06103 (/IDA)
Multi-eIF complex GO:0043614
A multifactor complex composed of multiple translation initiation factors and the initiatior tRNAiMet, which is ready to bind to the small (40S) ribosome to form the 43S preinitiation complex. In S. cerevisiae, this complex is composed of eIF1, eIF2, eIF3, and eIF5.
