Translational initiation factor elF-G mediates in vitro poly(A) tail-dependent translation. of outstanding interest Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 94:1997;9046-9051 The authors provide evidence that yeast translation factor elF-4G features a binding site for poly(A)-binding protein Pab 1p. This leads to an interaction between elF-4G, a subunit of cap-associated initiation factor elF-4F at the 5′ end of the mRNA and poly(A)-Pab1p at the 3′ ends of the mRNA.

PAIP also interacts with another subunit of cap-binding factor elF-4F, ATP-dependent RNA helicase, elF-4A.
