Function
function:The precise role of eIF-5A in protein biosynthesis is not known but it functions by promoting the formation of the first peptide bond.,PTM:eIF-5A seems to be the only eukaryotic protein to have an hypusine residue which is a post-translational modification of a lysine by the addition of a butylamino group (from spermidine).,similarity:Belongs to the eIF-5A family.,subunit:Found in a complex with Ran and XPO4. The hypusine modification increases the interaction with XPO4.,tissue specificity:Expressed in umbilical vein endothelial cells and several cancer cell lines (at protein level).,

Cellular localization
Cytoplasm . Nucleus . Endoplasmic reticulum membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein ; Cytoplasmic side . Hypusine modification promotes the nuclear export and cytoplasmic localization and there was a dynamic shift in the localization from predominantly cytoplasmic to primarily nuclear under apoptotic inducing conditions (PubMed:19379712, PubMed:27306458). Nuclear export of hypusinated protein is mediated by XPO4 (PubMed:10944119, PubMed:27306458). .
Tissue expression
Expressed in umbilical vein endothelial cells and several cancer cell lines (at protein level).
