Description: If heme levels fall, the heme-controlled kinase becomes active and phosphorylates eIF2 (red arrow). This blocks further translation by tying this factor into a stable complex with eIF2B. When heme levels are adequate, the kinase is inhibited, and eIF2 is available for translation initiation.
