Elongation Factor-1B2 Definition

Encoded by human EEF1B2 Gene (EF1Beta/EF1Delta Family), Elongation Factor 1B2 is a subunit of heterotrimeric Elongation Factor 1 (containing alpha/beta/gamma or alpha/delta/gamma subunits). Composed of an alpha subunit nucleotide binding domain and a beta/gamma subunit nucleotide exchange complex, Elongation Factor 1 is responsible for delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the ribosome. The homologous guanine nucleotide exchange factor EF-1-beta and EF-1-delta subunits stimulate GDP/GTP exchange bound to EF-1-alpha; phosphorylation affects the GDP/GTP exchange rate. (NCI)
