Protein synthesis is the ultimate step of gene expression and a key control point for regulation. In particular, it enables cells to rapidly manipulate protein production without new mRNA synthesis, processing, or export. This pathway gives an overview of the translation factors involved in this process. This pathway was inferred from Homo sapiens pathway [http://www.wikipathways.org/index.php?title=Pathway:WP107&oldid=29787 WP107(r29787)] with a 92% conversion rate. now E2K2 HUMAN TrEMBL accession number O43177 refers to same protein. Also contains 40S subunit and initiator tRNA.
