Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EIF5A gene.^[5]

It is the only known protein to contain the unusual amino acid hypusine [N^ε-(4-amino-2-hydroxybutyl)-lysine], which is synthesized on eIF5A at a specific lysine residue from the polyamine spermidine by two catalytic steps.^[6]

EF-P is the bacterial homolog of eIF5A, which is modified post-translationally in a similar but distinct way.^[7]^[8] Both proteins are believed to catalyze peptide bond formation and help resolve ribosomal stalls, making them elongation factors despite the "initiation factor" name originally assigned.^[9]

Clinical relevance[]

Germline deleterious heterozygous EIF5A variants cause Faundes-Banka syndrome.^[10]^[11] This rare human disorder is characterized by variable combinations of developmental delay, microcephaly, micrognathia and dysmorphic features.
