About Eef2k

Summary

Enables elongation factor-2 kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to anoxia; positive regulation of cellular component organization; and response to peptide hormone. Located in dendritic spine and postsynaptic density. Orthologous to human EEF2K (eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
