Gene: RALY
Alternate names for this Gene: HNRPCL2|P542
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) gene family. This protein may play a role in pre-mRNA splicing and in embryonic development. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 20
Location in Chromosome : 20q11.22
Description of this Gene: RALY heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein
Type of Gene: protein-coding
Gene: EIF2S2
Alternate names for this Gene: EIF2|EIF2B|EIF2beta|PPP1R67|eIF-2-beta
Gene Summary: Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (EIF-2) functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA and binding to a 40S ribosomal subunit. EIF-2 is composed of three subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, with the protein encoded by this gene representing the beta subunit. The beta subunit catalyzes the exchange of GDP for GTP, which recycles the EIF-2 complex for another round of initiation. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
