MTIF3 binds 28S ribosomal subunit
MTIF3 (IF3mt) binds the 28S ribosomal subunit in preparation for binding mRNA and initiating translation (Haque and Spremulli 2008, Haque et al. 2008, Christian et al. 2010, Haque et al 2011). MTIF3 also dissociates 55S particles that have not already been dissociated by GFM2 plus MRRF and displaces N-formylmethionyl-tRNA from the 28S subunit in the absence of mRNA but cannot displace mRNA from the 28S subunit (Bhargava and Spremulli 2005). The activity of MTIF3 is necessary for translation initiation (Koc and Spremulli 2002, Christian and Spremulli 2009). The 28S subunit associates with the matrix-side face of the inner mitochondrial membrane and translation products are inserted directly into the membrane (Liu and Spremulli 2000).
