TARGNAME

Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase (eEF-2K)

GENENAME

EEF2K

TARGTYPE

Successful target

SYNONYMS

eEF-2K; eEF-2 kinase; Calcium/calmodulin-dependent eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase

FUNCTION

Threonine kinase that regulates protein synthesis by controlling the rate of peptide chain elongation. Upon activation by a variety of upstream kinases including AMPK or TRPM7, phosphorylates the elongation factor EEF2 at a single site, renders it unable to bind ribosomes and thus inactive. In turn, the rate of protein synthesis is reduced.
