Also Known as WSCR1; WBSCR1; eIF-4H

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 7458

About EIF4H

Cytogenetic location: 7q11.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:74,174,356-74,197,096 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 113.5), placenta (RPKM 104.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes one of the translation initiation factors, which functions to stimulate the initiation of protein synthesis at the level of mRNA utilization. This gene is deleted in Williams syndrome, a multisystem developmental disorder caused by the deletion of contiguous genes at 7q11.23. Alternative splicing of this gene generates 2 transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
