Description
EIF2S1 Recombinant Human produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 335 amino acids (1-315 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 38.2 kDa. The EIF2S1 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 1, Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha, eIF-2-alpha, EIF-2alpha, EIF-2A, EIF2, EIF-2, EIF2A, EIF-2A.
Introduction
EIF2S1 participates in the premature steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA which binds to a 40S ribosomal subunit, followed by mRNA binding to create a 43S pre-initiation 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 should exchange with GTP by way of a reaction catalyzed by eIF-2B.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
0.5mg/ml solution containing 20mM Tris-HCl pH-8, 0.1M NaCl & 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
