Introduction

Translation is an essential process for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes to make various proteins from nucleic acid. It requires three different steps: initiation, elongation, and termination. Many proteins are needed in the initiation phase to form an initiation complex with the ribosome and promote the translation. In eukaryotes, these proteins are also known as eukaryotic initiation factors (eIF). The initiation process is complex since it involves at least 12 eIFs containing more than 30 polypeptides , including eIF1, eIF2, eIF3, eIF4, and eIF5 <elegans>. The eIFs were first studied through the genetic analyzed of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae <elegans>.
