EEF1B2 eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 beta 2 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1933)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 1933)
Symbol: EEF1B2
Full name: eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 beta 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: EEF1B; EEF1B1; EF1B
Summary: This gene encodes a translation elongation factor. The protein is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor involved in the transfer of aminoacylated tRNAs to the ribosome. Alternative splicing results in three transcript variants which differ only in the 5' UTR. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 282.5), lymph node (RPKM 249.8) and 25 other tissues
Orthologs: mouse
Gene size: 3320bp
Exon count: 7
