Summary: This gene encodes a subunit of the elongation factor-1 complex, which is responsible for the enzymatic delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the ribosome. This subunit contains an N-terminal glutathione transferase domain, which may be involved in regulating the assembly of multisubunit complexes containing this elongation factor and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases.

What's a GeneRIF?

study describes a novel EEF1G-ALK gene fusion in 2 pediatric patients with anaplastic large cell lymphoma that is associated with a cytoplasmic-restricted localization of the ALK fusion protein
Title: Novel ALK fusion in anaplastic large cell lymphoma involving EEF1G, a subunit of the eukaryotic elongation factor-1 complex.
Results show that eEF1Bgamma binds not only Che-1 and p53 transcripts but also their promoters. Its depletion significantly decreases p53 protein accumulation and slightly impacts on Che-1 accumulation in the mitochondria. These data support the notion that eEF1Bgamma, besides its canonical role in translation, is an RNA-binding protein and a key player in cellular stress responses.
Title: eEF1Bγ binds the Che-1 and TP53 gene promoters and their transcripts.
eEF1gamma, in addition to its role in translation elongation complex, is involved in regulating Vimentin gene by contacting both pol II and the Vimentin promoter region and shuttling/nursing the Vimentin mRNA
Title: The eEF1γ subunit contacts RNA polymerase II and binds vimentin promoter region.

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.
