GeneID: 1967 Human EIF2B1

GeneID: 209354 Mouse EIF2B1

GeneID: 64514 Rat EIF2B1

Gene Symbol EIF2B1
Gene Full Name eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B, subunit 1 alpha, 26kDa
Background 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, Oct 2009]
Function Catalyzes the exchange of eukaryotic initiation factor 2-bound GDP for GTP. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 34 kDa

    Immunofluorescence: HeLa cells were blocked with 10% goat serum and then stained with ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody (green) at 5 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C. DAPI (blue) for nuclear staining.

  • ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody IHC-P image

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin-embedded Human breast cancer tissue. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then stained with ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody at 2 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C.

    Western blot: 50 µg of samples under reducing condition. Rat liver, Rat kidney and Mouse liver lysates stained with ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody at 0.5 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C.

  • ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody FACS image

    Flow Cytometry: PC-3 cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum and then stained with ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody (blue) at 1 µg/10^6 cells for 30 min at 20°C, followed by incubation with DyLight®488 labelled secondary antibody. Isotype control antibody (green) was rabbit IgG (1 µg/10^6 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (red) was also used as a control.

  • ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody IHC-P image

    Immunohistochemistry: Paraffin-embedded Rat brain tissue. Antigen Retrieval: Heat mediation was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then stained with ARG42704 anti-eIF2B alpha antibody at 2 µg/ml dilution, overnight at 4°C.
