Also known as SELBEFSEC
Summary
EEFSEC (eukaryotic elongation factor, selenocysteine-tRNA specific, HGNC:24614) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3q21.3, encoding Selenocysteine-specific elongation factor (P57772). Translation factor required for the incorporation of the rare amino acid selenocysteine encoded by UGA codons. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 48.8% of cell lines).
Enables GTPase activity. Involved in selenocysteine incorporation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Predicted to be part of ribonucleoprotein complex.

Genetic regulation across tissues (GTEx eQTL / sQTL)
EEFSEC is an eGene in GTEx v10 — its expression is genetically regulated (eQTL) in 38 tissues and its splicing (sQTL) in 2 (q < 0.05). Strongest associations first; slope = normalized effect of the lead variant’s alternative allele.

- SECIS binding induces a conformational change in SBP2 that recruits eEFSec, which in concert with the Sec incorporation domain gains access to the ribosomal A site (PMID:18948268)
- eEFSec employs a non-canonical mechanism involving the distinct C-terminal domain 4 for the release of the selenocysteinyl-tRNA during decoding on the ribosome (PMID:27708257)
- EEFSEC, which encodes selenocysteine-tRNA specific eukaryotic elongation factor, participates in the incorporation of selenocysteine into selenoproteins. Selenoproteins serve critical cellular homeostatic functions in maintaining redox status and antioxidant defenses, as well as modulating inflammatory responses. These physiologic functions have been linked to the parturition process and preterm birth. (PMID:28877031)
- In this genomewide association study, we found that variants at the EBF1, EEFSEC, AGTR2, WNT4, ADCY5, and RAP2C loci were associated with gestational duration and variants at the EBF1, EEFSEC, and AGTR2 loci with preterm birth. (PMID:28877031)

Function. Translation factor required for the incorporation of the rare amino acid selenocysteine encoded by UGA codons. Replaces the eRF1-eRF3-GTP ternary complex for the insertion of selenocysteine directed by the UGA codon. Insertion of selenocysteine at UGA codons is mediated by SECISBP2 and EEFSEC: SECISBP2 (1) specifically binds the SECIS sequence once the 80S ribosome encounters an in-frame UGA codon and (2) contacts the RPS27A/eS31 of the 40S ribosome before ribosome stalling. (3) GTP-bound EEFSEC then delivers selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec) to the 80S ribosome and adopts a preaccommodated state conformation. (4) After GTP hydrolysis, EEFSEC dissociates from the assembly, selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec) accommodates, and peptide bond synthesis and selenoprotein elongation occur.

Disease relevance. Neurodevelopmental disorder with progressive spasticity and brain abnormalities (NEDPSB) [MIM:621102] An autosomal recessive disorder with onset in infancy or early childhood, and characterized by global developmental delay with intellectual disability, poor or absent speech, progressive spasticity, ataxia, and seizures. Brain imaging primarily shows cerebral and/or cerebellar hypoplasia with delayed myelination, and progressive cerebellar atrophy in about half of patients. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the TRAFAC class translation factor GTPase superfamily. Classic translation factor GTPase family. SelB subfamily.
