Product name
eIF2Ï« (phospho S51) polyclonal antibody
Antibody type
Polyclonal
Antigen
Synthetic phosphopeptide derived from human eIF2Ï« around the phosphorylation site of Serine 51.
Description
eIF2Ï«, also known as EIF2S1 or EIF2, is a 315 amino acid subunit of the eukaryotic initiation complex that functions to bind tRNA to the 40S ribosomal subunit (in a GTP-dependent manner), thereby initiating translation. In addition, the phosphorylation state of eIF2Ï« controls the rate of tRNA translation. When eIF2Ï« is not phosphorylated, translation occurs at a normal rate. However, upon phosphorylation by one of several kinases, eIF2Ï« is stabilized, thus preventing the GDP/GTP exchange reaction and slowing translation.
