GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

 EIF2B5 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

 EIF-2B, EIF2Bepsilon

Description

 Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B, subunit 5 epsilon, 82kDa (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

 This gene encodes one of five subunits of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B (EIF2B), a GTP exchange factor for eukaryotic initiation factor 2 and an essential regulator for protein synthesis. Mutations in this gene and the genes encoding other EIF2B subunits have been associated with leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
