Description

elF-2 gamma (also known as eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF-2 gamma subunit and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 3) is a 52kD member of the GTP-binding elongation factor family, eIF2G subfamily. This cytoplasmic protein is ubiquitously expressed and has GTPase activity involved in the recruitment of methionyl-tRNA to the 40 S ribosomal subunit. Plays a role in translation initiation and elongation. Heterodimeric interaction with eIF-2 alpha and beta chains, acts as a cofactor for hepatitis C internal ribosome entry site-mediated translation. The Poly6068 antibody recognizes human eIF-2 gamma and has been shown to be useful for Western blotting.
