Product Description

Eukaryotic initiation factor 2A (eIF2A) directs binding of the intiator methionyl-tRNA [Met-tRNA(i)] to 40 S ribosomal subunits in a codon dependent manner. It is a 65 kDa protein that was originally believed to be the functional homolog of prokaryotic IF2. eIF2A displays functional qualities similar to eIF2 which exists as complex of 3 subunits (eIF2-alpha, beta, and gamma); however comparison of eIF2A and eIF2 has shown that these two intitiation factors also display distinct functional abilities.

Production & Epitope

Antibody was affinity purified using an epitope specific to eIF2A immobilized on solid support.

The epitope recognized by A301-948A maps to a region between residue 450 and 500 of human eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2A, 65kDa using the numbering given in entry NP_114414.2 (GeneID 83939).

Immunoglobulin concentration was determined using Beer’s Law where 1mg/mL IgG has an A280 of 1.4.

Applications

All western blot analysis is performed using 5% Milk-TBST for blocking and as antibody diluent. Primary antibody is incubated overnight.

Western blots of immunoprecipitates are performed using an anti-Rabbit IgG Light Chain HRP-conjugated antibody with 5% Normal Pig Serum (Cat. No. S100-020) added to the blocking buffer.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC)1:200 - 1:1000. Epitope retrieval with citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for FFPE tissue sections.
Immunoprecipitation (IP)6 µg/mg lysate
