eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 1 (EEF1A1) encodes an isoform of the alpha subunit of the elongation factor-1 complex, which is responsible for the enzymatic delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the ribosome. This isoform (alpha 1) is expressed
Graphislactone A is an antioxidant produced by Cephalosporium IFB-E001 and M. olivacea. It exhibits dose-dependent scavenging activity against DPPH radicals and metal ion-dependent hydroxyl radicals in vitro. Graphislactone A reduces peroxidation of human LDL and slows peroxidation of linoleic acid by 4.4-fold. It also inhibits acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with an IC50 value of 27 μM.
Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIF) are proteins involved in the initiation phase of eukaryotic translation. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 binds to the ribosome subunit-mRNA complex. It has been implicated in preventing the large ribosomal subunit from binding the small subunit before it is ready to commence elongation.
