Involved in translation termination in response to the termination codons UAA, UAG and UGA. Stimulates the activity of ERF1. Involved in regulation of mammalian cell growth. Component of the transient SURF complex which recruits UPF1 to stalled ribosomes in the context of nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) of mRNAs containing premature stop codons. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-499 from human Eukaryotic peptide chain release factor GTP-binding subunit ERF3A, fused to MBP-Tag at N-terminal and 6X His-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in Baculovirus.
