Protein name Translation initiation factor eIF2B subunit delta (eIF2B GDP-GTP exchange factor subunit delta)
Protein function Acts as a component of the translation initiation factor 2B (eIF2B) complex, which catalyzes the exchange of GDP for GTP on eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2) gamma subunit (PubMed:25858979, PubMed:27023709, PubMed:31048492). Its guanine nucl
