| Protein Function | plays an active role in the initiation of translation in mammalian mitochondria |
|---|
| Biochemical Properties | Mitochondrial translational initiation factor 3 (IF3(mt)) is a 29 kDa protein that has N- and C-terminal domains, homologous to prokaryotic IF3, connected by a linker region. |
