Eukaryotic initiation factor 4B (eIF4B) is a factor required for the binding of mRNA to ribosomes for the initiation of translation. eIF4B has been demonstrated to modulate the helicase activity of eIF4A, a component of the eIF4F complex
Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 1:2000-1:10000
Immunoprecipitation: 2-5ug/mg lysate
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 3 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
