    basic FUNCTION
  • being essential for the first step in the synthesis of diphthamide, a post-translational modification of histidine which occurs in elongation factor 2 and which can be ADP-ribosylated by diphteria toxin and by pseudomonas exotoxin A
  • playing a possible role in the secretion process indicated by the increase of extracellular release of proteoglycans produced by the DPH3 down-regulation
  • stimulating binding of SERGEF to SEC5
  • acting in diphthamide biosynthesis (Webb 2008)
  • in addition to having a role in diphthamide biosynthesis, is also involved in modulating the functions of the Elongator complex in yeast (Liu 2006)
  • having a physiological importance in development (Liu 2006)
