The eIF-3 complex associates with the 40S ribosome and facilitates the recruitment of eIF-1, eIF-1A, eIF-2:GTP:methionyl-tRNAi and eIF-5 to form the 43S pre- initiation complex (43S PIC). The eIF-3 complex stimulates mRNA recruitment to the 43S PIC and scanning of the mRNA for AUG recognition. The eIF-3 complex is also required for disassembly and recycling of post-termination ribosomal complexes and subsequently prevents premature joining of the 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits prior to initiation (PubMed:17581632). The eIF- 3 complex specifically targets and initiates translation of a subset of mRNAs involved in cell proliferation, including cell cycling, differentiation and apoptosis, and uses different modes of RNA stem-loop binding to exert either translational activation or repression (PubMed:25849773). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03002, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17581632, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25849773, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27462815}. |eIF-3c N| |PCI| |positive regulation of mRNA binding| |positive regulation of RNA binding| |regulation of mRNA binding| |regulation of RNA binding| |eukaryotic 48S preinitiation complex| |eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 complex| |formation of cytoplasmic translation initiation complex| |eukaryotic 43S preinitiation complex| |translation initiation factor binding| |cytoplasmic translational initiation| |translation initiation factor activity| |cytoplasmic translation| |positive regulation of translation| |translational initiation| |positive regulation of cellular amide metabolic process| |positive regulation of binding| |ribonucleoprotein complex assembly| |ribonucleoprotein complex subunit organization| |regulation of translation| |regulation of binding| |translation| |regulation of cellular amide metabolic process| |peptide biosynthetic process| |ribonucleoprotein complex biogenesis| |posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression| |amide biosynthetic process| |peptide metabolic process| |cellular amide metabolic process| |cellular protein-containing complex assembly| |RNA binding| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |protein-containing complex assembly| |positive regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |cellular nitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of protein metabolic process| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of molecular function| |protein-containing complex subunit organization| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp413|THZ531 0.11 to 0.175μM on day4 R07 exp413]]|1.79| |[[:results:exp42|BI-6727 0.001μM R01 exp42]]|1.92| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
