======= EIF2B2 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: EIF2B2 * **Official Name**: eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B subunit beta * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=8892|8892]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P49770|P49770]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=EIF2B2&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20EIF2B2|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/606454|Open OMIM]] == 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. |IF-2B| |eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B complex| |oligodendrocyte development| |ovarian follicle development| |translation initiation factor activity| |oligodendrocyte differentiation| |regulation of translational initiation| |female gonad development| |development of primary female sexual characteristics| |guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity| |myelination| |glial cell development| |female sex differentiation| |ensheathment of neurons| |axon ensheathment| |response to heat| |response to glucose| |translational initiation| |response to hexose| |response to monosaccharide| |glial cell differentiation| |response to carbohydrate| |T cell receptor signaling pathway| |response to temperature stimulus| |gonad development| |gliogenesis| |development of primary sexual characteristics| |sex differentiation| |antigen receptor-mediated signaling pathway| |regulation of translation| |translation| |GTP binding| |response to peptide hormone| |regulation of cellular amide metabolic process| |peptide biosynthetic process| |reproductive structure development| |reproductive system development| |immune response-activating cell surface receptor signaling pathway| |response to peptide| |immune response-regulating cell surface receptor signaling pathway| |posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression| |amide biosynthetic process| |peptide metabolic process| |immune response-activating signal transduction| |immune response-regulating signaling pathway| |activation of immune response| |developmental process involved in reproduction| |cellular amide metabolic process| |positive regulation of immune response| |response to hormone| |central nervous system development| |response to organonitrogen compound| |response to nitrogen compound| |positive regulation of immune system process| |regulation of immune response| |response to abiotic stimulus| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |response to endogenous stimulus| |ATP binding| |response to oxygen-containing compound| |neurogenesis| |cellular nitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |cell development| |regulation of immune system process| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| |gene expression| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp246|UM0011500 10μM R05 exp246]]|1.77| |[[:results:exp310|2-Methoxyestradiol 0.55μM R07 exp310]]|1.79| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
