We report here that Several studies have suggested that PABP may play a role the cap-associated eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs), during translation initiation: PABP has been shown to be nec- TI - Translation Initiation Factors eIF-iso4G and eIF-4B Interact with the Poly(A)-binding Protein and Increase Its RNA Binding Activity JF - Journal of Biological Chemistry DO - 10.1074/jbc.272.26.16247 DA - 1997-06-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/translation-initiation-factors-eif-iso4g-and-eif-4b-interact-with-the-Qxq0B3ScsF DP - DeepDyve ER -
