Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding activity. Involved in IRES-dependent translational initiation of linear mRNA. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to dexamethasone stimulus; insulin receptor signaling pathway; and negative regulation of translational initiation. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; oocyte; pancreas tip epithelium; skeletal musculature; and thymus. Orthologous to human EIF4EBP1 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E binding protein 1).
