Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are a group of proteins that play essential roles in the initiation phase of protein synthesis (translation) in eukaryotic cells. These factors are involved in various steps of the initiation process, which includes the assembly of the ribosome on the messenger RNA (mRNA), the recruitment of the initiator transfer RNA (tRNA), and the proper positioning of the ribosomal subunits.
