Protein name Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 3 (EC 3.6.5.3) (Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit gamma X) (eIF2-gamma X) (eIF2gX)
Protein function Member of the eIF2 complex that functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA (PubMed:31836389). This complex binds to a 40S ribosomal subunit, followed by mRNA binding to form the 43S
