Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - EF2 is a large protein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. - It is a member of the EF-2 family of translation elongation factors. - EF2 is localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus. - It is a key regulator of protein synthesis and is involved in the initiation, elongation, and termination steps of translation. **Pathways and functions:** - EF2 is involved in various cellular processes, including bacterial infection pathways, disease, and metabolism of proteins. - It is important for the initiation of protein synthesis by promoting the binding of initiator tRNAs to the ribosome. - It is also involved in the elongation step of translation, where it facilitates the transfer of amino acids to the ribosome. - EF2 also plays a role in the regulation of protein turnover by targeting damaged or misfolded proteins for degradation. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in EF2 genes have been linked to several human diseases, including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and metabolic diseases. - Dysregulation of EF2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. - Therefore, EF2 is a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of various diseases.
