The eukaryotic translation factor 5A (eIF5A) is a highly conserved translation elongation factor in eukaryotes and it is essential for the viability of all organisms tested so far. eIF5A undergoes a specific post-translational modification, called hypusination, which is required for its function in the cell. Hypusination occurs in two steps, involving two different enzymes (deoxy-hypusine…
The eukaryotic initiation fator 5A (eIF5A) is highly conserved in Archaea and mammals. This factor undergoes a unique and specific post-translational modification called hypusination. Although it was initially suggested a function for eIF5A in the translation initiation, it was in the elongation step that eIF5A was better demonstrated. Recent data from our group revealed a possible role f…
The eukaryotic initiation translation factor 5A (eIF5A) is highly conserved in eukaryotes and undergoes a specific post-translational modification, called hypusination. Hypusination is required for eIF5A function in the cell and is only present in eIF5A. Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS) catalyzes the first step of this modification in eIF5A. Both DHPS and eIF5A are essential for cell viabili…
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 it was initially suggested a function for eIF5A in the translation initiation, it was in the elongation step tha…
