Protein name Eukaryotic initiation factor 4A-II (eIF-4A-II) (eIF4A-II) (EC 3.6.4.13) (ATP-dependent RNA helicase eIF4A-2)
Protein function ATP-dependent RNA helicase which is a subunit of the eIF4F complex involved in cap recognition and is required for mRNA binding to ribosome. In the current model of translation initiation, eIF4A unwinds RNA secondary structures in the 5'-UTR of
