Overview of Gene Research
Gspt2, also known as eukaryotic peptide chain release factor GTP-binding subunit eRF3b, is involved in the termination of protein synthesis in eukaryotes. It is one of the two mammalian genes encoding eRF3 structural homologues, with the other being Gspt1. It may interact with eRF1 to function as eRF3 in mammalian cells, and its mRNA is differentially expressed in various tissues, with relatively abundant levels in the brain [1,4].

Mouse studies have shown that Gspt2, but not Gspt1, can functionally substitute the essential yeast gene SUP35, indicating functional differences between the two proteins [1]. In humans, deletions of Xp11.22 region encompassing Gspt2 are associated with syndromic X-linked intellectual disability, suggesting that loss-of-function of Gspt2 may contribute to intellectual disability and developmental delay [2,5]. Also, Gspt2 has been identified as a biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma, promoting HepG2 cells' entrance into the S-phase and influencing the phosphorylation status of 4E-BP1 [3].

In conclusion, Gspt2 plays a crucial role in protein translation termination and has implications in human diseases such as X-linked intellectual disability and hepatocellular carcinoma. Studies, including those using mouse models substituting yeast genes, have provided insights into its unique functions, highlighting its significance in understanding biological processes and disease mechanisms.
