Functional mimicry revealed by the crystal structure of an eIF4A:RNA complex bound to the interfacial inhibitor, desmethyl pateamine A
{{output}}
Interfacial inhibitors exert their biological effects through co-association with two macromolecules. The pateamine A (PatA) class of molecules function by stabilizing eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4A RNA helicase onto RNA, resulting in translation initia... ...
