  Domain Name: EF1_alpha_II
EF1_alpha_II: this family represents the domain II of elongation factor 1-alpha (EF-1a) that is found in archaea and all eukaryotic lineages. EF-1A is very abundant in the cytosol, where it is involved in the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl-tRNAs to the A site of the ribosomes in the second step of translation from mRNAs to proteins. Both domain II of EF1A and domain IV of IF2/eIF5B have been implicated in recognition of the 3'-ends of tRNA. More than 61% of eukaryotic elongation factor 1A (eEF-1A) in cells is estimated to be associated with actin cytoskeleton. The binding of eEF1A to actin is a noncanonical function that may link two distinct cellular processes, cytoskeleton organization and gene expression.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
