EIF2B2 - eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B subunit beta Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as EIF2B; EIF2Bbeta; EIF-2Bbeta

Gene ID: 8892 | Gene type: protein coding

About EIF2B2

Cytogenetic location: 14q24.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:75,002,921-75,012,366 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 214 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 32.7), adrenal (RPKM 18.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the beta subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor-2B (EIF2B). EIF2B is involved in protein synthesis and exchanges GDP and GTP for its activation and deactivation. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
