Abstract excerpt
Eukaryotic elongation factor 1A (eEF1A) is a multifunctional protein involved in bundling actin, severing microtubule, activating the phosphoinositol-4 kinase, and recruiting aminoacyl-tRNAs to ribosomes during protein biosynthesis. Although evidence has shown the presence of the isoform eEF1A1 oligomers, the substantial mechanism of the self-association remains unclear. Herein, we found that human eEF1A1 could...
