MeSH definition : A eukaryotic initiation factor that interacts with the 40S initiation complex and
promotes the hydrolysis of the bound GTP. The hydrolysis of GTP causes the release
of EUKARYOTIC INITIATION FACTOR-2 and EUKARYOTIC INITIATION FACTOR-3 from the 40S
subunit and the subsequent joining of the 60S ribosomal subunit to the 40S complex
to form the functional 80S initiation complex;
