CDC33 [YOL139C]
mRNA cap binding protein and translation initiation factor eIF4E; the eIF4E-cap complex is responsible for mediating cap-dependent mRNA translation via interactions with translation initiation factor eIF4G (Tif4631p or Tif4632p); protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; mutants are defective for adhesion and pseudohyphal growth; human homolog EIF4E can complement yeast cdc33 null mutant
Synonyms: CDC33, CDC33p, P07260, P07260p, TIF45 ...
