== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: This gene encodes the beta subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor-2B (EIF2B). EIF2B is involved in protein synthesis and exchanges GDP and GTP for its activation and deactivation. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011].
* **UniProt Summary**: Catalyzes the exchange of eukaryotic initiation factor 2-bound GDP for GTP.
