Official Full Name: eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2D<br />Also known as: LGTN; HCA56<br />This gene encodes a translation initiation factor involved in the recruitment and delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the P-site of eukaryotic ribosomes in a GTP-independent manner. The gene was formerly known as ligase, but it is now known to be cytoplasmic, where it localizes and functions in conjunction with translation factors. Multiple transcript variants of this gene have been found encoding different isoforms.
