  Domain Name: S1_IF1A
S1_IF1A: Translation initiation factor IF1A, also referred to as eIF1A in eukaryotes and aIF1A in archaea, S1-like RNA-binding domain. S1-like RNA-binding domains are found in a wide variety of RNA-associated proteins. IF1A is essential for translation initiation. eIF1A acts synergistically with eIF1 to mediate assembly of ribosomal initiation complexes at the initiation codon and maintain the accuracy of this process by recognizing and destabilizing aberrant preinitiation complexes from the mRNA. Without eIF1A and eIF1, 43S ribosomal preinitiation complexes can bind to the cap-proximal region, but are unable to reach the initiation codon. eIF1a also enhances the formation of 5'-terminal complexes in the presence of other translation initiation factors. This protein family is only found in eukaryotes and archaea.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
