CC -!- FUNCTION: eIF-2 functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by
CC forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA. This complex
CC binds to a 40S ribosomal subunit, followed by mRNA binding to form a
CC 43S preinitiation complex. Junction of the 60S ribosomal subunit to
CC form the 80S initiation complex is preceded by hydrolysis of the GTP
CC bound to eIF-2 and release of an eIF-2-GDP binary complex. In order for
CC eIF-2 to recycle and catalyze another round of initiation, the GDP
CC bound to eIF-2 must exchange with GTP by way of a reaction catalyzed by
CC eIF-2B.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 complex/eIF2 is
CC a heterotrimer composed of an alpha subunit, also called subunit 1
CC (encoded by EIF2S1), a beta subunit, also called subunit 2 (encoded by
CC EIF2S2) and a gamma subunit, also called subunit 3 (encoded by EIF2S3).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P41091}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the GTP-binding elongation factor family. EIF2G
CC subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
