Abstract
eIF5B is a translation initiation factor that delivers Met-$tRNA^{Met}$ to AUG start codon and subsequently joins the small and large ribosomes. In order to study the function of eIF5B encoded by FUN12, we constructed FUN12 which lacked 5' end of its sequence. We found that this construct lacking almost all of its promoter in pRS plasmid partially complemented slow growth phenotype of fun12 deletion strain. Interestingly, this construct expressed N-terminally truncated eIF5B and its expression level was about 5% of that of wild type eIF5B. Low amount of the eIF5B expressed additionally in fun12 deletion strain played a direct role as a limiting factor for its growth. This limiting factor eIF5B in those strains also modulates activities of overall translation in vitro.
