Loading... Status: waiting for Mol* initialization Structural highlights 3j4j is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Thermus thermophilus HB8. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: Electron Microscopy, Resolution 11.5Å Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function IF2_THET8 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 (By similarity).
