Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4H is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EIF4H gene.
This gene encodes one of the translation initiation factors, which functions to stimulate the initiation of protein synthesis at the level of mRNA utilization. This gene is deleted in Williams syndrome, a multisystem developmental disorder caused by the deletion of contiguous genes at 7q11.23. Alternative splicing of this gene generates 2 transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
Function: Stimulates the RNA helicase activity of EIF4A in the translation initiation complex. Binds weakly mRNA.
