EIF2S1 antibody (pSer51)

Catalog No. ABIN197046

Product Details anti-EIF2S1 Antibody

Target: EIF2S1 (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2 Subunit 1 (EIF2S1))

Binding Specificity: pSer51

Reactivity: Human, Rat, Mouse

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This EIF2S1 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Specificity: This antibody detects endogenous levels of eIF2A only when phosphorylated at Serine 51.

Purification: Affinity Chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removed by chromatogramphy using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site.

Immunogen: Synthetic phosphopeptide derived from Human eIF2A around the phosphorylation site of Serine 51 (E-L-SP-R-R).

Background: EIF2 alpha is a 36 kDa protein which is ubiquitously expressed in many cell types. The eIF2 protein, which is composed of three subunits (alpha, beta and gamma), is one of the key molecules in the initiation of translation. In mammalian cells, eIF2 alpha is phosphorylated at serine 51 (human EIF2 alpha, the equivalent residue in mouse is serine 52) by at least two kinases: the haem-controlled repressor (HCR) and the interferon inducible double stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (PKR). Phosphorylation of eIF2 alpha blocks the GDP-GTP exchange activity of eIF2 beta, resulting in the suppression of protein synthesis. The phosphorylation of eIF2 alpha is an important regulatory process in protein synthesis.Synonyms: EIF2-A, Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 1, Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit alpha, eIF-2-alpha, eIF-2A, eIF-2alpha, eIF2 alpha
