    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology® antibody is the biotinylated version of the unconjugated eIF4E (C46H6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody #2067 and is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity. The concentration of the biotinylated antibody is 500 ug/ml. Peptide ELISA data were generated using the biotinylated antibody. Western blot data were generated using the unconjugated antibody.
    MW (kDa) 25

    Product Usage Information

    Biotinylated antibodies are ideal for immunoassay technologies and high-throughput ELISA platforms that require antibody pairs where both antibodies are from the same host. Platforms utilizing biotinylated antibodies include, but are not limited to, MSD, xMAP, Quanterix Simoa, AlphaLISA, AlphaScreen, HTRF, LANCE, and TR-FRET.

    Optimal dilutions/working concentrations should be determined by the end user. Please contact us if you require the antibody clone biotinylated at a different concentration, a carrier-free formulation, or a more customized packaging solution.

    Storage

    Supplied in 140 mM NaCl, 3 mM KCl, 10 mM sodium phosphate (pH 7.4) dibasic, 2 mM potassium phosphate monobasic, 2 mg/mL BSA, and 50% glycerol. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    eIF4E (C46H6) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (Biotinylated) detects endogenous levels of total eIF4E protein.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to human eIF4E protein.

    Background

    Eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) binds to the mRNA cap structure to mediate the initiation of translation (1,2). eIF4E interacts with eIF4G, a scaffold protein that promotes assembly of eIF4E and eIF4A into the eIF4F complex (2). eIF4B is thought to assist the eIF4F complex in translation initiation. Upon activation by mitogenic and/or stress stimuli mediated by Erk and p38 MAPK, Mnk1 phosphorylates eIF4E at Ser209 in vivo (3,4). Two Erk and p38 MAPK phosphorylation sites in mouse Mnk1 (Thr197 and Thr202) are essential for Mnk1 kinase activity (3). The carboxy-terminal region of eIF4G also contains serum-stimulated phosphorylation sites, including Ser1108, Ser1148, and Ser1192 (5). Phosphorylation at these sites is blocked by the PI3 kinase inhibitor LY294002 and by the FRAP/mTOR inhibitor rapamycin.
