EIF5A Antibody (Center) Blocking Peptide

Background:
EIF5A precursor is the only cellular protein known to contain a specific lysine residue which is transformed into the unique amino acid hypusine [N-(4-amino-2-hydroxybutyl)-lysine] by a series of post translational reactions. eIF5A promotes the formation of the first peptide bond during the initial stage of protein synthesis.

Other Names:
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A-1, eIF-5A-1, eIF-5A1, Eukaryotic initiation factor 5A isoform 1, eIF-5A, Rev-binding factor, eIF-4D, EIF5A

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP2901c was selected from the Center region of human EIF5A. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.

Gene Name: EIF5A (HGNC:3300)

Gene ID: 1984
