## Abstract Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) has a unique character: the presence of an unusual amino acid, hypusine, which is formed by postโtranslational modifications. Even before the identification of hypusination in eIF5A, the correlation between hypusine formation and prote

## Abstract The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) contains a special amino acid residue named hypusine that is required for its activity, being produced by a postโtranslational modification using spermidine as substrate. Stem cells from rat skeletal muscles (satellite cells) were
## Abstract Aberrant regulation of the translation initiation is known to contribute to tumorigenesis. eIF3 plays an important role in translation initiation. eIF3f is the p47 subunit of the eIF3 complex whose function in cancer is not clear. Initial studies from our group indicated that eIF3f expr
## Abstract Heatโinduced cell death appears to be a cellโspecific event. Chronic heat stress was lethal to human colon cancer cells (Cacoโ2, HT29, and HCT116), but not to normal diploid fibroblasts and other cancer cells (BJโT, WI38, HeLa, ovarian 2008, WI38VA). Acute heat stress (45โ51ยฐC, 30 min)
