Predicted to enable translation elongation factor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of cell population proliferation; positive regulation of apoptotic process; and positive regulation of cellular senescence. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; positive regulation of DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediator; and positive regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleolus; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Orthologous to human EEF1E1 (eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 epsilon 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
