Eif5

Predicted to enable GDP-dissociation inhibitor activity; eukaryotic initiation factor eIF2 binding activity; and translation initiation factor activity. Predicted to be involved in cytoplasmic translational initiation; regulation of translational initiation; and ribosome assembly. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; ear; genitourinary system; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human EIF5 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Eif5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
