Summary
Predicted to enable translation elongation factor activity. Involved in several processes, including gonad morphogenesis; nematode larval development; and nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in excretory cell; hypodermis; pharynx; rectal muscle; and spermatheca. Orthologous to human EIF5AL1 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A like 1) and EIF5A2 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
