Description
Predicted to have GTPase activity; ribosome binding activity; and translation elongation factor activity. Involved in cellular response to xenobiotic stimulus and chordate embryonic development. Predicted to localize to cytosol and ribonucleoprotein complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glaucoma and spinocerebellar ataxia type 26. Is expressed in several structures, including epidermis; immature eye; nervous system; tail bud; and trunk. Orthologous to human EEF2 (eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2).
