Function | RNA-binding component of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is required for several steps in the initiation of protein synthesis (PubMed:9388245, PubMed:17581632, PubMed:25849773, PubMed:27462815). The eIF-3 complex associates with the 40S ribosome and facilitates the recruitment of eIF-1, eIF-1A, eIF-2:GTP:methionyl-tRNAi and eIF-5 to form the 43S pre- initiation complex (43S PIC). The eIF-3 complex stimulates mRNA recruitment to the 43S PIC and scanning of the mRNA for AUG recognition. The eIF-3 complex is also required for disassembly and recycling of post-termination ribosomal complexes and subsequently prevents premature joining of the 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits prior to initiation (PubMed:9388245, PubMed:17581632). The eIF-3 complex specifically targets and initiates translation of a subset of mRNAs involved in cell proliferation, including cell cycling, differentiation and apoptosis, and uses different modes of RNA stem-loop binding to exert either translational activation or repression (PubMed:25849773). |

Background
EIF3B(Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 3, Subunit B), also called PRT1 or EIF3-p116, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EIF3B gene. By searching an EST database, Methot et al.(1997) identified a cDNA encoding a human Prt1 homolog. Asano et al.(1997) demonstrated that the 115-kD component of HeLa cell eIF3 is actually composed of 2 proteins, p116(PRT1) and an unrelated 110-kD protein. Chaudhuri et al.(1997) isolated cDNAs encoding PRT1, which they called p110 based on the size of the corresponding component of rabbit eIF3.
