Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

eIF-4 proteins are required for mRNA recognition and acceleration of translation during protein synthesis. This group of proteins consists of the RNA helicase, eIF-4A; the RNA-binding protein, eIF-4B; and the cap binding proteins, eIF-4E and eIF-4γ. eIF-4γ, also referred to as p220, is a 1396 amino acid polypeptide that migrates as a 220kDa. eIF-4γ has several potential glycosylation and phosphorylation sites that could account for its anomalous electrophoretic mobility. In addition, eIF-4γ is rapidly degraded in picornavirus-infected cells due to its content of multiple PEST sequences.
