These data directly implicate translational repression in C9orf72 repeat-induced neurodegeneration and identify eIF1A as a novel modifier of C9orf72 repeat toxicity.
Title: C9orf72 arginine-rich dipeptide proteins interact with ribosomal proteins in vivo to induce a toxic translational arrest that is rescued by eIF1A.
results indicate that in humans, eIF5B displacing eIF2 from Met-tRNAi upon subunit joining may be coupled to eIF1A displacing eIF5 from eIF5B, allowing the eIF5:eIF2-GDP complex to leave the ribosome.

We report that eIF4G1 exists in two complexes, either with eIF4E or with eIF1. Using an eIF1 mutant impaired in eIF4G1 binding, we demonstrate that eIF1-eIF4G1 interaction is important for leaky scanning and for avoiding m7G-cap-proximal initiation.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
