Name | EIF2B3 |
---|---|
Function | Acts as a component of the translation initiation factor 2B (eIF2B) complex, which catalyzes the exchange of GDP for GTP on the eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2) complex gamma subunit (PubMed:25858979, PubMed:27023709, PubMed:31048492). Its guanine nucleotide exchange factor activity is repressed when bound to eIF2 complex phosphorylated on the alpha subunit, thereby limiting the amount of methionyl-initiator methionine tRNA available to the ribosome and consequently global translation is repressed (PubMed:25858979, PubMed:31048492). |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is one of the subunits ofinitiation factor eIF2B, which catalyzes the exchange of eukaryoticinitiation factor 2-bound GDP for GTP. It has also been found tofunction as a cofactor of hepatitis C virus internal ribosome entrysite-mediated translation. Mutations in this gene have beenassociated with leukodystrophy with vanishing white matter.Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding differentisoforms have been found for this gene.
