Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * It is a protein of approximately 110 kDa. * It is a key component of the cap-dependent translation initiation pathway, which is responsible for initiating protein synthesis in response to specific signals. * It is also involved in the regulation of protein translation and is regulated by various cellular factors. **Pathways and functions:** * **Abc-family proteins mediated transport:** EIF2S3 is involved in the transport of proteins to the site of translation initiation. * **Activation of the mrna upon binding of the cap-binding complex and eifs:** EIF2S3 is recruited to the cap-binding complex and eIFs (eukaryotic initiation factors) upon binding of the cap-binding complex. * **Binding to 43s:** EIF2S3 then binds to 43s, a small ribosomal subunit that is required for the initiation of translation. * **Antiviral mechanism by ifn-stimulated genes:** EIF2S3 is a key regulator of the expression of antiviral genes in response to infection. * **Cap-dependent translation initiation:** EIF2S3 is also involved in the cap-dependent translation initiation pathway, where it facilitates the binding of 43s to the start codon of mRNA. * **Cellular responses to stimuli:** EIF2S3 is involved in various cellular responses to stimuli, including stress responses, starvation, and inflammation. * **Cellular response to mitochondrial stress:** EIF2S3 is also involved in the cellular response to mitochondrial stress. * **Cellular response to starvation:** EIF2S3 is a key regulator of the expression of genes involved in starvation response. * **Cytokine signaling in immune system:** EIF2S3 is involved in the regulation of cytokine signaling in the immune system. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in EIF2S3 have been linked to several human diseases, including cancer and viral infections. * Targeting EIF2S3 has been investigated as a therapeutic strategy for cancer and other diseases that are characterized by abnormal protein synthesis.
