Background:

eIF2 alpha is a 36 kDa protein which is ubiquitously expressed in many cell types. The eIF2 protein, which is composed of three subunits (alpha, beta and gamma), is one of the key molecules in the initiation of translation. In mammalian cells, eIF2 alpha is phosphorylated at serine 51 (human EIF2 alpha, the equivalent residue in mouse is serine 52) by at least two kinases: the haem-controlled repressor (HCR) and the interferon inducible double stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR). Phosphorylation of eIF2 alpha blocks the GDP-GTP exchange activity of eIF2 beta, resulting in the suppression of protein synthesis. The phosphorylation of eIF2 alpha is an important regulatory process in protein synthesis.

Also known as:

CDA 02; CDA02; eIF 2 alpha; EIF 2; EIF 2A; EIF-2alpha; EIF2; EIF2A; EIF2alpha; eIF2S1; Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2 alpha; Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 1 alpha 35kDa; Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha.

Specificity:

Storage:

0.01M TBS(pH7.4) with 1% BSA, 0.03% Proclin300 and 50% Glycerol. Store at -20 °C for one year. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. The lyophilized antibody is stable at room temperature for at least one month and for greater than a year when kept at -20°C. When reconstituted in sterile pH 7.4 0.01M PBS or diluent of antibody the antibody is stable for at least two weeks at 2-4 °C.

Application:

Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
