Recent advances in eIF5A study has shown a significant impact on its function in the process of protein synthesis, specifically, the elongation step of translation. Results from our group using different conditional mutants of eIF5A in Saccharomyces cerevisiae revealed a functional relationship between eIF5A and eEF2. However, the mechanisms involved in the function of the translation elo…
The translation factor 5A (eIF5A) is highly conserved in Archaea and eukaryotes and is essential for cell viability. This is the only protein known to contain the amino acid residue hypusine, essential for eIF5A function, generated by a post-translational modification. Although eIF5A has been extensively involved in several cellular processes, it is now clear that this factor plays a role…
