EIF2B2 (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2B Subunit Beta) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with EIF2B2 include Leukoencephalopathy With Vanishing White Matter and Childhood Ataxia With Central Nervous System Hypomyelination/Vanishing White Matter. Among its related pathways are Regulation of lipid metabolism Insulin signaling-generic cascades and Beta-Adrenergic Signaling. EIF2B2 encodes the beta subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor-2B (EIF2B). EIF2B is involved in protein synthesis and exchanges GDP and GTP for its activation and deactivation.
