Related Product Information for anti-EIF4A2 antibody
eIF4A2 is a 407aa ATP-dependent RNA helicase belonging to the DEAD box helicase family. It contains one helicase ATP-binding domain and a helicase C-terminal domain. eIF4A2, a subunit of the eIF4F complex, acts as a protein-synthesis initiation factor and thus plays an important role in the binding of mRNA to the 43S pre-initiation complex of ribosomes. Research is carried out to elucidate the potential role of eIF4A2 in glucose homeostasis and also in type 2 diabetes in the presence of metabolic stress where eIF4A2 controls specific mRNA translation and protein synthesis rate in pancreatic beta-cells. Human eIF4A2 interacts with the NS5B protein of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and facilitates the genomic RNA synthesis of NS5B protein by unwinding the secondary structure of the HCV genome. It is ubiquitously expressed in most of normal tissues, but in variable amount.

Uniprot Description

EIF4A2: ATP-dependent RNA helicase which is a subunit of the eIF4F complex involved in cap recognition and is required for mRNA binding to ribosome. In the current model of translation initiation, eIF4A unwinds RNA secondary structures in the 5'-UTR of mRNAs which is necessary to allow efficient binding of the small ribosomal subunit, and subsequent scanning for the initiator codon. Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. eIF4A subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Translation initiation; RNA-binding; Translation; EC 3.6.4.13; Helicase

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 3q28

Cellular Component: perinuclear region of cytoplasm; eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4F complex; cytosol

Molecular Function: protein binding; translation initiation factor activity; ATPase activity; helicase activity; ATP binding

Biological Process: poly(A) tail shortening; cellular protein metabolic process; translation; viral reproduction; cytokine and chemokine mediated signaling pathway; translational initiation; gene expression; regulation of translational initiation; mRNA catabolic process, deadenylation-dependent decay

Product Notes

The EIF4A2 eif4a2 (Catalog #AAA6006368) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The eIF4A2 (Eukaryotic Initiation Factor 4A-II, eIF-4A-II, eIF4A-II, ATP-dependent RNA Helicase eIF4A-2, DDX2B, EIF4F) reacts with Bovine, Human, Mouse, Porcine, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's eIF4A2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Dilution: Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (formalin fixed paraffin embedded): 5ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EIF4A2 eif4a2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "eIF4A2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
