About EIF5

Cytogenetic location: 14q32.32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:103,334,237-103,345,025 (from NCBI)

This gene has 21 transcripts (splice variants) and 265 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 60.5), thyroid (RPKM 44.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor-5 (EIF5) interacts with the 40S initiation complex to promote hydrolysis of bound GTP with concomitant joining of the 60S ribosomal subunit to the 40S initiation complex. The resulting functional 80S ribosomal initiation complex is then active in peptidyl transfer and chain elongations (summary by Si et al., 1996 [PubMed 8663286]).[supplied by OMIM, May 2010]
