• Gene Name:

  Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha

• Gene Aliases:

  EIF2; EIF-2; EIF2A; EIF-2A; eIF-2-alpha; EIF-2alpha; eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 1; Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha; eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2, subunit 1 alpha, 35kDa.

• Gene ID:

  1965

• Swiss Prot:

  P05198

• Accession Number:

  NP_004085.1

• Reactivity:

  Human|Monkey|Mouse|Rat

• Immunogen:

  The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human eIF2 alpha.

• Target:

  Functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA. This complex binds to a 40S ribosomal subunit, followed by mRNA binding to form a 43S pre-initiation complex. Junction of the 60S ribosomal subunit to form the 80S initiation complex is preceded by hydrolysis of the GTP bound to eIF-2 and release of an eIF-2-GDP binary complex. In order for eIF-2 to recycle and catalyze another round of initiation, the GDP bound to eIF-2 must exchange with GTP by way of a reaction catalyzed by eIF-2B.
