Summary: Enables GTPase activity. Acts upstream of or within hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation and translational elongation. Located in cytoplasm and ribosome. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in brain and neocortex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glaucoma; spinocerebellar ataxia type 26; and stomach cancer. Orthologous to human EEF2 (eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
