Description: Homo sapiens eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A, Y-linked (EIF1AY), mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_004681): This gene is located on the non-recombining region of the Y chromosome. It encodes a protein related to eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A (EIF1A), which may function in stabilizing the binding of the initiator Met-tRNA to 40S ribosomal subunits. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]. Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg19 chrY:22,737,611-22,755,040 Size: 17,430 Total Exon Count: 7 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg19 chrY:22,737,758-22,754,232 Size: 16,475 Coding Exon Count: 7
ID:IF1AY_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A, Y-chromosomal; Short=eIF-1A Y isoform; AltName: Full=Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4C; Short=eIF-4C; FUNCTION: Seems to be required for maximal rate of protein biosynthesis. Enhances ribosome dissociation into subunits and stabilizes the binding of the initiator Met-tRNA(I) to 40 S ribosomal subunits (By similarity). INTERACTION: O60841:EIF5B; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-286439, EBI-928530; TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the eIF-1A family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 S1-like domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
