Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nTranslation is the process where amino acid residues are assembled into polypeptides on ribosomes. This process is generally divided into three stages: initiation, elongation and termination. During elongation, mRNA and tRNA pair at the two active sites (A and P sites) on the ribosome. A number of eukaryotic elongation factors (eEFs) are involved in this process in mammalian cells (1). eEF1A, also called elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu), binds GTP and interacts with amino acyl-tRNAs to promote recruitment of amino acyl-tRNAs to the A-site of the ribosome (1). After GTP hydrolysis, GDP-eEF1A leaves the ribosome and is later converted back to the GTP-eEF1A by eEF1B (1). Studies have shown that eEF1A is phosphorylated under certain conditions, indicating that its activity is regulated at the post-translational level (2,3).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCCS-3; CCS3; cervical cancer suppressor 3; CTCL tumor antigen; EE1A1; EEF-1; EEF1A; eEF1A-1; EEF1A1; EF-1-alpha-1; EF-Tu; EF1A; EF1a-like protein; EF1A1; elongation factor 1 alpha subunit; Elongation factor 1-alpha 1; Elongation factor Tu; epididymis secretory sperm binding protein; Eukaryotic elongation factor 1 A-1; eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 1; eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 1-like 14; FLJ25721; glucocorticoid receptor AF-1 specific elongation factor; GRAF-1EF; HNGC:16303; LENG7; leukocyte receptor cluster (LRC) member 7; Leukocyte receptor cluster member 7; MGC102687; MGC131894; MGC16224; prostate tumor-inducing protein 1; PTI1; translation elongation factor 1 alpha 1-like 14\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 50\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797895532713,"sku":"2551S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-2551s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
