EIF4E2 belongs to the eukaryotic initiation factor 4E family. It recognizes and binds the 7-methylguanosine-containing mRNA cap during an early step in the initiation of protein synthesis and facilitates ribosome binding by inducing the unwinding of the mRNAs secondary structures.1) Tee, A.R., FEBS Lett. 564 (1-2), 58-62 (2004).
