  Function in Host
RNA-binding component of the eukaryotic translationinitiation factor 3 (eIF-3) complex, which is required for severalsteps in the initiation of protein synthesis. The eIF-3 complex associates with the 40S ribosomeand facilitates the recruitment of eIF-1, eIF-1A, eIF-2:GTP:methionyl-tRNAi and eIF-5 to form the 43S pre-initiation complex (43S PIC). TheeIF-3 complex stimulates mRNA recruitment to the 43S PIC and scanningof the mRNA for AUG recognition. The eIF-3 complex is also required fordisassembly and recycling of post-termination ribosomal complexes andsubsequently prevents premature joining of the 40S and 60S ribosomalsubunits prior to initiation. TheeIF-3 complex specifically targets and initiates translation of asubset of mRNAs involved in cell proliferation, including cell cycling, differentiation and apoptosis, and uses different modes of RNA stem-loop binding to exert either translational activation or repression.

Function of This Protein During Virus Infection
Virus NameSARS-COV-2 Protein Function Pro-viral [5]
Infected TissueLung Infection Time48 h
Infected CellCalu-3 cells (Human lung cancer cell) Cellosaurus IDCVCL_0609 
Method DescriptionTo detect the role of host protein EIF3A in viral infection, EIF3A protein knockout Calu-3 cells were infected with SARS-COV-2 for 48 h , and the effects on infection was detected through qRT-PCR.
ResultsIt is reported that knockdown of EIF3A leads to the reduced SARS-CoV-2 RNA levels compared with control group.
