How can you use “eif” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

The predicted amino acid sequence of IfkA has all the hallmarks of being a kinase for eIF2α.
They have long GC-rich 5'-UTRs that can form extensive secondary structure and have been classified as "weak" mRNAs because they are translated inefficiently when eIF4E levels are limiting (reviewed in [ 15 ] ). It has been proposed that when eIF4E levels are elevated these mRNAs can more effectively recruit eIF4E and its associated factors including eIF4G, a scaffold protein essential in recruiting the small ribosomal subunit, and eIF4A, a helicase essential for scanning through secondary structures in the 5'-UTR [ 15 27 ] .
In normal mitogen-activated cells eIF4E activity is enhanced due to elevated transcription of the eIF4E gene, a phosphorylation-dependent increase in affinity for the 7-methylguanosine cap, and phosphorylation-dependent inactivation of the inhibitor protein 4EBP.
Protein was isolated from growing and developing cells and subjected to western analysis using antiserum specific for phosphorylated eIF2α.
This initial shift off of polysomes was of the same magnitude in both strains, and it was detected within minutes, prior to when we observed increased phosphorylation of eIF2α.
