EIF1AY

Chr Y

eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1A Y-linked

Also known as: eIF-4C

The protein is a component of the ribosomal translation initiation machinery that facilitates mRNA scanning, start codon recognition, and assembly of the 80S ribosome complex for protein synthesis. This gene is located on the Y chromosome and follows Y-linked inheritance, passing from father to son. Currently, no specific diseases have been definitively associated with mutations in this gene.
