| 1314591 | EIF4G1 | eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 gamma 1 | The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the multi-subunit protein complex EIF4F. This complex facilitates the recruitment of mRNA to the ribosome, which is a rate-limiting step during the initiation phase of protein synthesis. The recognition of the mRNA cap and the ATP-dependent unwindin g of 5'-terminal secondary structure is catalyzed by factors in this complex. The subunit encoded by this gene is a large scaffolding protein that contains binding sites for other members of the EIF4F complex. A domain at its N-terminus can also interact with the poly(A)-binding protein, which may mediate the circularization of mRNA during translation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, some of which are derived from alternative promoter usage.

| 1550408 | Eif4g1 | eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4, gamma 1 | This gene encodes a member of the eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIF) that play important roles in translation initiation by mediating recruitment of additional initiation factors and providing a scaffold for ribosome/mRNA-bridging. Along with eIF4A and eIF4E, the encoded protein forms t he eIF4F complex that bridges the 5' UTR with the polyadenylated 3' UTR resulting in mRNA circularization, enhanced translation initiation and mRNA stability. Through its association with eIF3, the encoded protein mediates recruitment of the 43S pre-initiation complex to mRNA. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes for this gene have been identified on chromosomes 2 and 13.
