EIF4A2 Antibody

• Background :

  The eIF4A, eukaryotic initiation factor 4A, are a set of proteins, eIF4A1, eIF4A2, and eIF4A3, that belong to the extensive DEAD-box RNA helicase family (Weinstein et al., 1997) . They are involved in many aspects of RNA metabolism by virtue of their RNA-binding capacity and ATPase activity (Lu et al., 2014) . eIF4A2 is a highly conserved gene for one of the protein-synthesis initiation factors involved in the binding of mRNA to the ribosome (Gingras et al., 1999) . In humans eIF4A2 is expressed in all normal tissues, though highly expressed in skeletal muscle (Sudo et al., 1995) . Studies suggest eIF4A2 may play a role in some cancers, specifically breast and lung cancer, along with melanoma (Shaoyan et al., 2013) .
