Colorectal and breast cancers as well as several cases of ovarian, cervical, skin, testicular and a few cases of malignant melanoma, urothelial and liver cancers showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic positivity. Remaining malignant cells were generally negative.
Eukaryotic initiation factor 2B (EIF2B), which is necessary for protein synthesis, is a GTP exchange factor composed of five different subunits. The protein encoded by this gene is the fourth, or delta, subunit. Defects in this gene are a cause of leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter (VWM) and ovarioleukodystrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
