Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 9669
Gene name Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5B
Gene symbol EIF5B
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
IF2
Chromosome 2
Chromosome location 2q11.2
Summary Accurate initiation of translation in eukaryotes is complex and requires many factors, some of which are composed of multiple subunits. The process is simpler in prokaryotes which have only three initiation factors (IF1, IF2, IF3). Two of these factors ar

Protein name Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5B (eIF-5B) (EC 3.6.5.3) (Translation initiation factor IF-2)
Protein function Plays a role in translation initiation (PubMed:10659855, PubMed:35732735). Ribosome-dependent GTPase that promotes the joining of the 60S ribosomal subunit to the pre-initiation complex to form the 80S initiation complex with the initiator methi
