This antibody detects 4E-BP1/EIF4EBP1 pThr36. Predicted to cross react with Mouse (100 % Antigen Homology).
Purification
Protein A Affinity Chromatography. Then, the antibody fraction is peptide affinity purified in a 2-step procedure with peptides. The antibody is eluted with high and low pH buffers and neutralized immediately, followed by dialysis against PBS.
Immunogen
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding T36 of human EIF4EBP1.
EIF4EBP1 is a member of a family of translation repressor proteins. This protein directly interacts with eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), which is a limiting component of the multisubunit complex that recruits 40S ribosomal subunits to the 5' end of mRNAs. Interaction of this protein with eIF4E inhibits complex assembly and represses translation. It is phosphorylated in response to various signals including UV irradiation and insulin signaling, resulting in its dissociation from eIF4E and activation of mRNA translation.Synonyms: Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1, PHAS-1, PHAS-I, PHAS1, Phosphorylated heat- and acid-stable protein regulated by insulin 1, eIF4E-binding protein 1
