Gene Information: ife-2

Strains carrying this gene

Strain	Genotype	Description
KX15	ife-2(ok306) X.	No apparent phenotype. Outcrossed version of RB579. Deletion of 1628 bp removes ife-2 exon 4. Deletion extends into R04A9.3 and removes exons 1 and 2 of unknown gene. IFE-2 protein is absent from m7GTP-affinity purified protein; other IFEs are present. Breakpoint independently determined by BDK and Vancouver KO Group is AAAACAATTTTCCACTGCT/AA/TTTTTGCAAAGTATTCAATT. Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E gene (isoform 2).
