SKU:: E8949-44
Molecular Weight:: 27.2
Purity:: ~85% (SDS-PAGE)
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in 20mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 10% glycerol.
Extra Details:: EIF4E, a member of eukaryotic initiation factor 4 families, modulates translation of maternal mRNAs in early embryos before the onset of zygotic transcription. This protein recognizes and binds to the 7 methyl GTP cap structure of eukaryotic mRNAs, thereby mediating the initiation of translation. It facilitates ribosome binding by inducing the unwinding of the mRNAs secondary structures. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-217 of human recombinant EIF4E protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, expressed in E.coli.
