EIF2S2

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (EIF-2) functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA and binding to a 40S ribosomal subunit. EIF-2 is composed of three subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, with the protein encoded by this gene representing the beta subunit. The beta subunit catalyzes the exchange of GDP for GTP, which recycles the EIF-2 complex for another round of initiation.

Interaction

Heterotrimer composed of an alpha, a beta and a gamma chain (PubMed:23063529). Component of an EIF2 complex at least composed of CELF1/CUGBP1, CALR, CALR3, EIF2S1, EIF2S2, HSP90B1 and HSPA5 (By similarity). Interacts with BZW2/5MP1 (PubMed:21745818, PubMed:25147208, PubMed:34260931). Interacts with EIF5 (PubMed:21745818).
