Proteiner som kodas av IE-gener, då de novo-proteinsyntes inte föreligger. Termen användes ursprungligen för reglerproteiner som syntetiserades hos virus omedelbart efter virusupptagning i värdcellen. Begreppet används även för cellulära proteiner som syntetiseras omedelbart efter att en vilande cell stimulerats av extracellulära signaler.
Proteins that are coded by immediate-early genes, in the absence of de novo protein synthesis. The term was originally used exclusively for viral regulatory proteins that were synthesized just after viral integration into the host cell. It is also used to describe cellular proteins which are synthesized immediately after the resting cell is stimulated by extracellular signals.
