Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E family member 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EIF4E3 gene.^[5]

EIF4E3 belongs to the EIF4E family of translational initiation factors that interact with the 5-prime cap structure of mRNA and recruit mRNA to the ribosome.^[5]^[6]

Model organisms have been used in the study of EIF4E3 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Eif4e3^{tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi}^[11]^[12] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists — at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.^[13]^[14]^[15]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.^[9]^[16] Twenty four tests were carried out on mutant mice but no significant abnormalities were observed.^[9]
