Abstract excerpt
The putative translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) is a small protein, highly conserved and essential in all organisms from archaea to mammals. Although the involvement of eIF5A in translation initiation has been questioned, new evidence reestablished the connection between eIF5A and this cellular process. In order to better understand the function of elF5A, a screen for synthetic lethal gene using the...
