Recombinant Mouse Eif2a Protein, Myc/DDK-tagged

• Cat.No.: Eif2a-2770M
• Product Overview: Purified recombinant protein of mouse full-length eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2A (Eif2a), with C-terminal MYC/DDK tag, expressed in HEK293T cells.

Specification

• Species: Mouse
• Source: HEK293
• Tag: DDK&Myc
• Description: Functions in the early steps of protein synthesis of a small number of specific mRNAs. Acts by directing the binding of methionyl-tRNAi to 40S ribosomal subunits. In contrast to the eIF-2 complex, it binds methionyl-tRNAi to 40S subunits in a codon-dependent manner, whereas the eIF-2 complex binds methionyl-tRNAi to 40S subunits in a GTP-dependent manner.
• Molecular Mass: 64.4 kDa
• Purity: > 80% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining
• Stability: Stable for 12 months from the date of receipt of the product under proper storage and handling conditions. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Storage: Store at -80 centigrade after receiving vials.
• Concentration: >50 μg/mL as determined by microplate BCA method
• Storage Buffer: 25 mM Tris.HCl, pH 7.3, 100 mM glycine, 10% glycerol.
