Name
General Control Derepressed

  • YLR291C
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables enzyme regulator activity and translation initiation factor activity. Contributes to guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in regulation of translational initiation. Located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Part of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B complex and guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor complex. Used to study leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter and leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter 2. Orthologous to human EIF2B2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B subunit beta).
SGD Description
Beta subunit of translation initiation factor eIF2B; the guanine-nucleotide exchange factor for eIF2; activity subsequently regulated by phosphorylated eIF2; first identified as negative regulator of GCN4 expression; mutations in human ortholog EIF2B2 cause fatal brain disease childhood ataxia with central nervous system hypomyelination (CACH); human ortholog can complement yeast mutant, allows growth down-regulation of yeast gene
