Recombinant human eIF-4A3/EIF4A3 protein
EIF4A3 (Eukaryotic initiation factor 4A-III) belongs to the DEAD box helicase family and eIF4A subfamily. DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure, such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. EIF4A3 is a component of a splicing-dependent multiprotein exon junction complex (EJC) deposited at splice junction on mRNAs. Recombinant human EIF4A3 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
