Official Symbol: eftu-2
Official Full Name: Tr-type G domain-containing protein
Primary source: WormBase:WBGene00001166
Locus tag: CELE_ZK328.2
See related: AllianceGenome:WB:WBGene00001166
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans (strain: Bristol N2)

Summary: Predicted to enable GTPase activity and U5 snRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of U2-type catalytic step 2 spliceosome and U4/U6 x U5 tri-snRNP complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in esophageal atresia; hepatitis B; hepatocellular carcinoma; mandibulofacial dysostosis, Guion-Almeida type; and microcephaly. Orthologous to human EFTUD2 (elongation factor Tu GTP binding domain containing 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

These results suggest that C. elegans EF-Tu1 recognizes the D-arm instead of the T-arm by a mechanism involving its C-terminal region.
Title: A protein extension to shorten RNA: elongated elongation factor-Tu recognizes the D-arm of T-armless tRNAs in nematode mitochondria.
