Is eIF2 a GTPase?
Is eIF2 a GTPase? Pathway Description: Upon AUG recognition, eIF2 hydrolyzes GTP to GDP with the help of the GTPase activating protein eIF5 and dissociates from the mRNA, permitting the binding of the 60S ribosomal subunit and elongation of the polypeptide chain. What is the purpose of eIF2 binding to GTP? eIF2 plays a central […]
