{"symbol":"EIF4ENIF1","synonyms":["CLAST4","4E-T"],"name":"eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E nuclear import factor 1","description":"The protein encoded by this gene is a nucleocytoplasmic shuttle protein for the translation initiation factor eIF4E. This shuttle protein interacts with the importin alpha-beta complex to mediate nuclear import of eIF4E. It is predominantly cytoplasmic; its own nuclear import is regulated by a nuclear localization signal and nuclear export signals. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
