Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1802
Gene name Diphthamide biosynthesis 2
Gene symbol DPH2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
DEDSSH2DPH2L2
Chromosome 1
Chromosome location 1p34.1
Summary This gene is one of two human genes similar to the yeast gene dph2. The yeast gene was identified by its ability to complement a diphthamide mutant strain, and thus probably functions in diphthamide biosynthesis. Diphthamide is a post-translationally modi

Q9BQC3
Protein name 2-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)histidine synthase subunit 2 (Diphthamide biosynthesis protein 2) (Diphtheria toxin resistance protein 2) (S-adenosyl-L-methionine:L-histidine 3-amino-3-carboxypropyltransferase 2)
Protein function Required for the first step of diphthamide biosynthesis, a post-translational modification of histidine which occurs in elongation factor 2 (PubMed:32576952). DPH1 and DPH2 transfer a 3-amino-3-carboxypropyl (ACP) group from S-adenosyl-L-methion
