    Summary
    Enables RNA 7-methylguanosine cap binding activity and eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding activity. Involved in regulation of translation and translation. Located in cytosol. Part of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex. Is expressed in several structures, including adult brain cell body rind; adult head; cyst cell of testis; gonad; and male germline cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in late onset Parkinson's disease. Orthologous to human EIF4G1 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 gamma 1) and EIF4G3 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 gamma 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
