Gene: EEF1A2

Alternate names for this Gene: DEE33|EEF1AL|EF-1-alpha-2|EF1A|EIEE33|HS1|MRD38|STN|STNL

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an isoform of the alpha subunit of the elongation factor-1 complex, which is responsible for the enzymatic delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the ribosome. This isoform (alpha 2) is expressed in brain, heart and skeletal muscle, and the other isoform (alpha 1) is expressed in brain, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, and pancreas. This gene may be critical in the development of ovarian cancer.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20q13.33

Description of this Gene: eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
