Function |
May be involved in the translation of target mRNAs by scanning and recognition of the initiation codon. Involved in translation initiation; promotes recruitmnet of aminoacetyled initiator tRNA to P site of 40S ribosomes. Can promote release of deacylated tRNA and mRNA from recycled 40S subunits following ABCE1-mediated dissociation of post-termination ribosomal complexes into subunits. Plays a role in the modulation of the translational profile of a subset of cancer-related mRNAs when recruited to the translational initiation complex by the oncogene MCTS1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16982740, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17878526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20713520}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in heart and skeletal muscle and moderately expressed in the brain, placenta, liver and pancreas. Weakly expressed in the lung and kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9628587}.
