eIF3j component of translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3); dual function protein involved in translation initiation as a substoichiometric component (eIF3j) of eIF3; required for 20S pre-rRNA processing; required at post-transcriptional step for efficient retrotransposition; absence decreases Ty1 Gag:GFP protein levels; binds eIF3 subunits Rpg1p, Prt1p and 18S rRNA; eIF3 also involved in programmed stop codon read through; human homolog EIF3J can complement yeast hcr1 mutant
