a) Phosphorylated eIF2 denatures. b) Phosphorylated eIF2 cannot exchange its GDP for GTP, which is required for eIF2 to participate in another round of translation initiation. c) Dephosphorylated eIF2 cannot exchange its GDP for GTP, which is required for eIF2 to participate in another round of translation initiation. d) Phosphorylated eIF2 is hyperactivated, blocking further translation. e) Phosphorylated eIF2 cannot exchange its GTP for GDP, which is required for eIF2 to participate in another round of translation initiation.
