Recent work from our laboratory has revealed a network of physical interactions among eIFs that participate in the binding of Met-tRNAi Met and mRNA to 40S subunits during assembly of the 48S complex. Unexpectedly, the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) of eIF5, a GAP for the TC, plays a central role in these interactions, bridging association of eIF3 with the TC, eIF1, and eIF4G. We have identified a multifactor complex (MFC) containing eIFs 1, 2, 3, 5, and Met-tRNAi Met that can exist free of 40S ribosomes, suggesting that constituents of the MFC bind to the 40S ribosome as a preformed unit. Results from in vitro experiments indicate that formation of the MFC promotes binding of TC and mRNA to the 40S ribosome. In vivo analysis indicates that stable incorporation of eIFs 1 and 5 into the 48S complex, via the MFC, is required for efficient coupling of eIF5-dependent GTP hydrolysis with start codon recognition during the scanning process.
