sce:GCN3

Genes: 33

SGD Description
Alpha subunit of translation initiation factor eIF2B; guanine-nucleotide exchange factor for eIF2; activity subsequently regulated by phosphorylated eIF2; positive regulator of GCN4 expression; assembles into filaments with Gcd2p, Gcd6p, Gcd7p, and Sui2p as cells approach stationary phase and under cytosolic acidification and starvation conditions


PomBase Description
translation initiation factor eIF2B alpha subunit (predicted)


AspGD Description
Ortholog(s) have enzyme regulator activity, guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity, translation initiation factor activity
