eIF5A, 1-154 aa, Recombinant, Human (Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A Isoform B, EIF-5A, EIF5A1, eIF5AI)

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) is the only protein known to contain unusual amino acid formed by the action of deoxyhypusine synthase and deoxyhypusine hydroxylase using spermidine as the substrate. This protein was previously reported to be involved in the first step of peptide bond formation in translation; however more recent work implicates it as a universally conserved translation elongation factor. Modulation of eIF5A has been linked to proliferation and cancer. Recombinant human eIF5A protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.\n\nAA Sequence:\nMADDLDFETG DAGASATFPM QCSALRKNGF VVLKGRPCKI VEMSTSKTGK HGHAKVHLVG IDIFTGKKYE DICPSTHNMD VPNIKRNDFQ LIGIQDGYLS LLQDSGEVRE DLRLPEGDLG KEIEQKYDCG EEILITVLSA MTEEAAVAIK AMAK\n\nMolecular Weight: 16.8kD (154aa)\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only.
