Eif3e Gene Summary [Mouse]

Contributes to translation initiation factor activity. Involved in translational initiation. Part of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 complex. Is active in postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; mammary gland; notochord; and spleen. Orthologous to human EIF3E (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit E). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

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 Eif3e often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
