EIF2B5 blocking peptide
EIF2B5 Antibody (N-term) Blocking peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes one of five subunits of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B (EIF2B), a GTP exchange factor for eukaryotic initiation factor 2 and an essential regulator for protein synthesis. Mutations in this gene and the genes encoding other EIF2B subunits have been associated with leukoencephalopathy with vanishing white matter. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
Uniprot Description
eIF2B-epsilon: eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B, subunit 5. A translational regulatory protein that functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by catalyzing the exchange of eukaryotic initiation factor 2-bound GDP for GTP. Mutation in EIF2B5 causes childhood ataxia with central nervous system hypomyelination/ vanishing white matter leukodystrophy.

Product Notes
The EIF2B5 eif2b5 (Catalog #AAA9219653) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EIF2B5, Blocking Peptide" 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.Precautions
