Description de la cible

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 1 (UniProt: P05198; also known as Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha, eIF-2-alpha, eIF-2A, eIF-2alpha) is encoded by the EIF2S1 (also known as EIF2A) gene (Gene ID: 1965) in human. eIF-2A is a heterotrimer composed of a, b, and g chains. It functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA. This complex binds to a 40S ribosomal subunit, followed by mRNA binding to form a 43S pre-initiation complex. In order for eIF-2 to recycle and catalyze another round of initiation, the GDP bound to eIF-2 must exchange with GTP by way of a reaction catalyzed by eIF-2B. Its activity is regulated by phosphorylation at serine 48 and serine 51 (without methionine), which stabilizes the eIF-2/GDP/eIF-2B complex and prevents the GDP/GTP exchange reaction, thus impairing the recycling of eIF-2a between successive rounds of initiation and leading to global inhibition of translation. elF-2a is reported to be a substrate for eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2-alpha kinase 1 to 4 (EIF2AK1, 2, 3, and 4). It is also a key component of the integrated stress response (ISR) and is required for adaptation to various stress conditions. Phosphorylation on serine 51 by the EIF2AK4 is shown to occur in response to amino acid starvation and UV irradiation. Its phosphorylation by EIF2AK1-4 converts it into a global protein synthesis inhibitor, leading to reduction in cap-dependent translation, while concomitantly initiating the preferential translation of ISR-specific mRNAs, such as the transcriptional activator ATF4. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Forme physique

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Stockage et stabilité

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
