Facts about Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-binding protein 2.
By comparison, hyperphosphorylated form dissociates from EIF4E, allowing interaction between EIF4G1/EIF4G3 and EIF4E, leading to initiation of translation (PubMed:25533957). EIF4EBP2 is enriched in brain and acts as a regulator of synapse activity and neuronal stem cell renewal through its ability to repress translation initiation (By similarity).
