Target/Specificity | This Mouse Eef2k antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 178-205 amino acids from the N-terminal region of mouse Eef2k. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | Mouse Eef2k Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | Eef2k |
---|---|
Function | Threonine kinase that regulates protein synthesis by controlling the rate of peptide chain elongation (PubMed:34815424, PubMed:9144159). Upon activation by a variety of upstream kinases including AMPK or TRPM7, phosphorylates the elongation factor EEF2 at a single site, renders it unable to bind ribosomes and thus inactive (PubMed:34815424, PubMed:9144159). In turn, the rate of protein synthesis is reduced (PubMed:34815424, PubMed:9144159). |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed (PubMed:9144159). Particularly abundant in skeletal muscle and heart (PubMed:9144159) |
