EIF2S1 Antibody

• Gene Name:

  Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2, subunit 1 alpha, 35kDa

• Gene Aliases:

  EIF2, EIF-2, EIF2A, EIF-2A, EIF-2alpha

• Gene ID:

  1965; 13665; 54318

• Reactivity:

  Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

• Immunogen:

  Synthesized peptide derived from human eIF2 Alpha around the non-phosphorylation site of S51. Location: 30-110aa.

• Target:

  The translation initiation factor EIF2 catalyzes the first regulated step of protein synthesis initiation, promoting the binding of the initiator tRNA to 40S ribosomal subunits. Binding occurs as a ternary complex of methionyl-tRNA, EIF2, and GTP. EIF2 is composed of 3 nonidentical subunits, the 36-kD EIF2-alpha subunit (EIF2S1), the 38-kD EIF2-beta subunit (EIF2S2; MIM 603908), and the 52-kD EIF2-gamma subunit (EIF2S3; MIM 300161) . The rate of formation of the ternary complex is modulated by the phosphorylation state of EIF2-alpha (Ernst et al., 1987 [PubMed 2948954]) .[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2010]
