Mutations in this gene and the genes encoding other EIF2B subunits have been associated with leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: Catalyzes the exchange of eukaryotic initiation factor 2-bound GDP for GTP. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |IF-2B| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B complex| |oligodendrocyte development| |translation initiation factor activity| |oligodendrocyte differentiation| |regulation of translational initiation| |guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity| |glial cell development| |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| |gliogenesis| |antigen receptor-mediated signaling pathway| |regulation of translation| |translation| |response to peptide hormone| |regulation of cellular amide metabolic process| |peptide biosynthetic process| |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| |cellular amide metabolic process| |positive regulation of immune response| |response to hormone| |central nervous system development| |response to organonitrogen compound| |identical protein binding| |response to nitrogen compound| |regulation of immune response| |positive regulation of immune system process| |response to abiotic stimulus| |organonitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |response to endogenous stimulus| |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| |membrane| |gene expression| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp48|Mubritinib 0.2μM R01 exp48]]|-1.73| |[[:results:exp216|Erlotinib 10μM R05 exp216]]|2.49| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 314/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|12/28| |blood|5/28| |bone|8/26| |breast|18/33| |central nervous system|30/56| |cervix|3/4| |colorectal|8/17| |esophagus|5/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|8/16| |kidney|10/21| |liver|9/20| |lung|35/75| |lymphocyte|7/16| |ovary|12/26| |pancreas|8/24| |peripheral nervous system|3/16| |plasma cell|3/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|8/24| |soft tissue|4/9| |thyroid|1/2| |upper aerodigestive|10/22| |urinary tract|4/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 456 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: 6.77 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='EIF2B1 Expression in NALM6 Cells: 6.77'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2025/12/10 20:19by 127.0.0.1
