Mapping of the eIF4G binding site on eIF3 and model of 40S complex with eIF3, eIF1, mRNA, and eIF4G.
  1. Superposition of eIF4G density from difference mapping on the eIF3-IRES.
  2. Model based on Fig. 4A and Fig. 3. The mRNA entry and exit sites are indicated.
  3. Model of mRNA loading; e1 indicates eIF1 position. The A, P, and E sites are indicated. mRNA is depicted as a red line.
