Mammalian mitochondrial translation initiation factor 2Mammalian mitochondrial translation initiation factor 2
FunctionFunction
[IF2M_BOVIN] One of the essential components for the initiation of protein synthesis. Protects formylmethionyl-tRNA from spontaneous hydrolysis and promotes its binding to the 30S ribosomal subunits. Also involved in the hydrolysis of GTP during the formation of the 70S ribosomal complex.
