Enables RNA 7-methylguanosine cap binding activity and RNA trimethylguanosine cap binding activity. Involved in several processes, including determination of adult lifespan; negative regulation of response to oxidative stress; and positive regulation of translation. Located in cytoplasmic stress granule. Expressed in several structures, including excretory canal; germ line; pharynx; spermatheca; and vulva. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autistic disorder. Is an ortholog of human EIF4E (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E) and EIF4E1B (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E family member 1B).
Enables RNA 7-methylguanosine cap binding activity. Involved in embryo development. Predicted to be located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex. Expressed in germ line; gonad; and oocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autistic disorder. Is an ortholog of human EIF4E (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E) and EIF4E1B (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E family member 1B).
Enables RNA 7-methylguanosine cap binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of translation and translational initiation. Predicted to be part of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex. Expressed in several structures, including HSN; pharyngeal cell; somatic cell; somatic gonad precursor; and somatic nervous system. Is an ortholog of human EIF4E2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E family member 2).
