Function

Translation elongation factor that catalyzes the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA) to the A-site of ribosomes during the elongation phase of protein synthesis (PubMed:26593721, PubMed:26651998, PubMed:36123449, PubMed:36264623, PubMed:36638793). Base pairing between the mRNA codon and the aa-tRNA anticodon promotes GTP hydrolysis, releasing the aa-tRNA from EEF1A1 and allowing its accommodation into the ribosome (PubMed:26593721, PubMed:26651998, PubMed:36123449, PubMed:36264623, PubMed:36638793). The growing protein chain is subsequently transferred from the P-site peptidyl tRNA to the A-site aa-tRNA, extending it by one amino acid through ribosome-catalyzed peptide bond formation (PubMed:26593721, PubMed:26651998, PubMed:36123449, PubMed:36264623). Also plays a role in the positive regulation of IFNG transcription in T-helper 1 cells as part of an IFNG promoter-binding complex with TXK and PARP1 (PubMed:17177976). (Microbial infection) Required for the translation of viral proteins and viral replication during human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Activity summary

The eEF1A1 also known as EF-Tu or eEF1A1-L3 is an elongation factor involved in protein synthesis. It facilitates the delivery of aminoacyl-tRNA to the A-site of the ribosome during translation. eEF1A1 exhibits a mass of approximately 50 kDa and is widely expressed in various tissues including the brain heart and skeletal muscle. Its expression level varies indicating that it plays a consistent role in translation machinery but may have tissue-specific functions.

Biological function summary

This elongation factor is important in promoting the accuracy and efficiency of protein translation. It interacts with several components of the protein synthesis machinery and forms part of a larger translational complex. eEF1A1 is involved in ensuring the correct amino acids are added during protein synthesis which affects protein structure and function. In addition to its canonical role it also engages in processes such as actin filament binding nuclear transport and other cell maintenance tasks.

Pathways

The activities of eEF1A1 intersect with key processes involved in cellular growth and proliferation. It plays a significant role in the mTOR signaling pathway which regulates cell growth by controlling protein synthesis. eEF1A1 also interacts with proteins like Rheb an important player in mTOR signaling. By participating in these pathways eEF1A1 links translation with broader regulatory networks that control cell metabolism.

Associated diseases and disorders

EEF1A1 has connections to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Its elevated expression is often observed in several cancer types suggesting a role in tumorigenesis. Additionally misregulation of eEF1A1 may contribute to neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease where alterations in protein synthesis pathways are common. The protein's interaction with tau known in neuropathological conditions highlights its impact on neurodegeneration.
