Summary
Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity; translation initiation factor activity; and translation initiation factor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in formation of translation preinitiation complex. Predicted to act upstream of or within in utero embryonic development; male germ cell proliferation; and male gonad development. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 complex. Predicted to be active in synapse. Orthologous to human EIF2S2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit beta).

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.
