Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EIF5A gene.
Enables U6 snRNA binding activity and protein N-terminus binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to virus; positive regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway by p53 class mediator; and tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway. Located in annulate lamellae; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Part of nuclear pore. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EIF5A gene.
It is the only known protein to contain the unusual amino acid hypusine [Nε-(4-amino-2-hydroxybutyl)-lysine], which is synthesized on eIF5A at a specific lysine residue from the polyamine spermidine by two catalytic steps.
