Eukaryotic initiation factor 3 subunit B (eIF3B) is one of at least 13 non-identical protein subunits of eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3). eIF3 is the largest eIF (~650kD) and functions to facilitate binding of the 40S ribosomal subunit to the 5'-end of cellular mRNAs near the cap structure (m7GpppN). eIF3B is a conserved subunit and part of the functional core of eIF3. It bears a non-canonical RNA recognition motif (RRM) and interacts directly with the eIF3S1 subunit
