The eIF3a subunit drives RNA binding within the eIF3 complex

N. A. Ide, R. C. Gentry, B. Ashwood, M. A. Rudbach, K. Yoo, P. K. Velez, V. M. Communale, E. W. Hartwick, C. D. Kinz-Thompson, R. L. Gonzalez, C. E. Aitken

This study reconstitutes a biochemically active yeast eIF3 complex and shows that eIF3a provides core RNA-binding activity, modulated by interactions with other subunits.
