Human EIF3K protein, His tag

The 7-kD eukaryotic translation initiation factor-3 (eIF3) is the largest eIF and contains at least 12 subunits, including EIF2S12. eIF3 plays an essential role in translation by binding directly to the 4S ribosomal subunit and promoting formation of the 4S preinitiation complex (Mayeur et al., 23 [PubMed 14519125]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 28]
