eEF1A2, an isoform of the eEF1A protein, is aberrantly upregulated in many tumor tissues (Cao et al., 2009; Kulkarni et al., 2007; Pinke et al., 2008; Scaggiante et al., 2012) and has been identified as a tumor‐associated protein (Lee and Surh, 2009; Pellegrino et al., 2014). Here, EEF1A2 is linked to neoplasm.
