Gene ID1917
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameeukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 2
Gene Symbol EEF1A2
SynonymsHS1; STN; EF1A; STNL; EEF1AL; EF-1-alpha-2;
Alternate nameselongation factor 1-alpha 2; statin-S1; eukaryotic elongation factor 1 A-2;
Chromosome20
Map Location20q13.3
SummaryThis 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. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
