ターゲット情報

  • 機能

    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 preinitiation complex. Junction of the 60S ribosomal subunit to form the 80S initiation complex is preceded by hydrolysis of the GTP bound to eIF-2 and release of an eIF-2-GDP binary 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.

  • 配列類似性

    Belongs to the eIF-2-alpha family.
    Contains 1 S1 motif domain.

  • 翻訳後修飾

    Substrate for at least 4 kinases: EIF2AK1/HRI, EIF2AK2/PKR, EIF2AK3/PERK and EIF2AK4/GCN2. Phosphorylation stabilizes the eIF-2/GDP/eIF-2B complex and prevents GDP/GTP exchange reaction, thus impairing the recycling of eIF-2 between successive rounds of initiation and leading to global inhibition of translation (PubMed:15207627, PubMed:18032499). Phosphorylated; phosphorylation on Ser-52 by the EIF2AK4/GCN2 protein kinase occurs in response to amino acid starvation and UV irradiation.

  • 細胞内局在

    Cytoplasmic granule. The cytoplasmic granules are stress granules which are a dense aggregation in the cytosol composed of proteins and RNAs that appear when the cell is under stress. Colocalizes with NANOS3 in the stress granules (By similarity).

Question

I have purchased a number of antibodies from Abcam and they have all been good. I have couple of questions which i would like you to assist me with, as i have checked your website and found no answers. The Rabbit polyclonal eIF4E antibody (ab1126) does it detect total eIF4E ie the non phospho and the phospho or just the non phospho form The Mouse Monoclonal eIF2a antibody (ab5369) does it detect total eIF2a ie the non phospho and the phospo or just the non phospho form

Read More
Answer

Thank you for your enquiry. I can confirm that both these eIF2a antibodies (ab1126, ab5369)will detect both phosphorylated and de-phosphorylated forms of the protein. I hope this information is helpful. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Question

No, Swissprot, EBI's and NCBI's websites are riddled with mistakes and faulty information. So, here's the link you should look at: http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/misc/trans.html It is IUBMB that has the naming rights to translation factors, no one else. Thank you for your time and letting help you correct other's mistakes.

Answer

Thank you for this information and clarification. I have changed the online datasheet to reflect the fact that the antibody is raised against eIF2 alpha. Thank you again for your assistance.

Question

The antibody products stated to be anti eIF-2A really against eIF2alpha. They are two entirely different proteins. ab4837 ab5369 ab19288

Read More
Answer

Thank you for your enquiry. Our designation comes directly from Swiss-Prot where the synonyms for the protein are as follows: Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha subunit eIF-2-alpha EIF-2alpha EIF-2A I believe the datasheet is correct in identifying the protein that the antibody is raised against. I hope this information helps, please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any more advice or information.

Question

I see that you have three antibodies to eIF2A. I'm particularly interested in an antibody that reacts with the c terminal region of eIF2A (near aa 214-234). antibodies ab4837 and ab19288 apparently react with the n-terminal region (viz., phosphorylated S52 or s51(?)). antibody ab5369, on trhe other hand, was developed against the whole protein, but do you have any ideas as to the location of the epitope. If the epitope of the latter antibody is located in the c-terminal half to eIF2A, it may suit my needs. please let me know if you have any ideas as to location of the epitope of ab5369. thank you

Answer

We have received the following information from the source of this antibody: "The Mouse (monoclonal) anti-eIF2alpha antibody ab5369 clone EIF2alpha was made using recombinant protein. There is unfortunately no information on the epitope or region the antibody recognizes. The following references cite the antibody: Ramos-Castaneda J, et al (2005) J. Biol. Chem. 280(10):9467-9473. Trottier MD, et al (2005) Virology 333:215-225. Zhang, et al (2002) Mol. Cell. Biol. 22(11):3864-3874. Please do not hesitate to contact us again if you require further information,

Question

I am interested in the mouse monoclonal Ig against eIF2alpha (ab5369). A western blot prepared from cell lysates is shown on the data sheet (HeLa) and while the Ig concentration used for the western blot is shown, the amount of loaded target is not discussed. Was the total protein loaded for each lysate determined before loading the gel? What is the sensitivity of the Ig? How much lysate was loaded (total protein - ug's/ well; or in terms of starting cell #s). We are interested in the antibody and would use it in assays where we have 5 - 15 micrograms of TOTAL HeLa cell lysate loaded/ well (lysate prepared from 5 x10EE4 - 1 x 10EE5 cells). We don't want to spend money on an Ig that is insensitive and cannot detect eIF2alpha in these assays.

Read More
Answer

I enquired with the supplier of ab5369 and they were able to provide me with the following information: approximately 30-40 micrograms of lysate was loaded. If you have any more questions, do not hesitate to contact us again.
