| Formulation |
EEF2K protein solution (0.25 mg/ml) containing Phosphate buffered saline (pH7.4) and 10% glycerol. |
| Purity |
Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
EEF2K Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 748 amino acids (1-725 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 84.6kDa. EEF2K is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
Eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase (EEF2K) is threonine kinase which regulates protein synthesis by means of controlling the rate of peptide chain elongation. Upon activation through a diversity of upstream kinases including AMPK or TRPM7, EEF2K phosphorylates the elongation factor EEF2 at a sole site, renders it unable to bind ribosomes and therefore inactive. In turn, the rate of protein synthesis is being reduced. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Eukaryotic Elongation Factor 2 Kinase, Calcium/Calmodulin-Dependent Eukaryotic Elongation Factor 2 Kinase, EEF-2 Kinase, EC 2.7.11.20, EEF-2K, Calcium/Calmodulin-Dependent Eukaryotic Elongation Factor-2 Kinase, Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase III, Eukaroytic Elongation Factor 2 Kinase, Eukaryotic Elongation Factor-2 Kinase, Elongation Factor-2 Kinase, EC 2.7.11, HSU93850, Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
| Stability |
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
