Caenorhabditis elegans
IFTB-1
CELE_K04G2.1, phi-17, K04G2.1
iftb-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of translation initiation factor 2 beta (eIF2beta); by homology, IFTB-1 is predicted to function in translation initiation and start codon recognition; loss of iftb-1 via RNAi indicates that iftb-1 activity is required for a number of processes including growth, development, and body morphogenesis; loss of iftb-1 activity in adult animals extends lifespan.
