Abstract excerpt
The protein encoded by the fission yeast gene, moe1(+) is the homologue of the p66/eIF3d subunit of mammalian translation initiation factor eIF3. In this study, we show that in fission yeast, Moe1 physically associates with eIF3 core subunits as well as with 40 S ribosomal particles as a constituent of the eIF3 protein complex that is similar in size to multisubunit mammalian eIF3. However, strains lacking...
