EIF4A2 Protein, Human (GST)

Cat. No.: HY-P700526
Handling Instructions

EIF4A2, an ATP-dependent RNA helicase, is a vital subunit of the eIF4F complex, pivotal in cap recognition and mRNA binding to ribosomes. In translation initiation, EIF4A2 crucially unwinds RNA secondary structures in mRNA 5'-UTRs. This activity facilitates small ribosomal subunit binding and efficient scanning for the initiator codon, orchestrating translation initiation. EIF4A2 Protein, Human (GST) is the recombinant human-derived EIF4A2 protein, expressed by E. coli, with N-GST labeled tag. The total length of EIF4A2 Protein, Human (GST) is 407 a.a., with molecular weight of 73.4 kDa.

Description

EIF4A2, an ATP-dependent RNA helicase, is a vital subunit of the eIF4F complex, pivotal in cap recognition and mRNA binding to ribosomes. In translation initiation, EIF4A2 crucially unwinds RNA secondary structures in mRNA 5'-UTRs. This activity facilitates small ribosomal subunit binding and efficient scanning for the initiator codon, orchestrating translation initiation. EIF4A2 Protein, Human (GST) is the recombinant human-derived EIF4A2 protein, expressed by E. coli, with N-GST labeled tag.

Background

EIF4A2, an ATP-dependent RNA helicase, operates as a crucial subunit within the eIF4F complex, playing a pivotal role in cap recognition and facilitating the binding of mRNA to ribosomes. In the established model of translation initiation, EIF4A2 takes on the responsibility of unwinding RNA secondary structures present in the 5'-UTR of mRNAs. This unwinding activity is essential to create a conducive environment for the efficient binding of the small ribosomal subunit and subsequent scanning for the initiator codon, thus orchestrating the intricate process of translation initiation.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
