A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of EIF2S1 antibody, catalog no. 70R-1419
Background:
The translation initiation factor eIF2 catalyzes the first regulated step of protein synthesis initiation, promoting the binding of the initiator tRNA to 40S ribosomal subunits. Binding occurs as a ternary complex of methionyl-tRNA, eIF2, and GTP. eIF2 is composed of 3 nonidentical subunits, alpha (36 kDa), beta (38 kDa), and gamma (52 kDa). The rate of formation of the ternary complex is modulated by the phosphorylation state of eIF2-alpha.
