Description | IF-2 is a translation initiator in each of the three main phylogenetic domains (Eukaryotes [1], Bacteria [2] and Archaea [3]). IF2 interacts with formylmethionine-tRNA, GTP, IF1, IF3 and both ribosomal subunits [2]. Through these interactions, IF2 promotes the binding of the initiator tRNA to the A site in the smaller ribosomal subunit and catalyses the hydrolysis of GTP following initiation-complex formation [2]. |
