EIF6 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein eukaryotic translation initiation factor 6, which is encoded by the EIF6 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to bind to the 60S ribosomal subunit and prevents its association with the 40S ribosomal subunit to form the 80S initiation complex in the cytoplasm. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 245 residues, a mass of 26.6 kDa, and is a member of the EIF-6 protein family. It is known to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm and is noted to be expressed at very high levels in colon carcinoma with lower levels in normal colon and ileum and lowest levels in kidney and muscle. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally phosphorylated. Other alias names for this target include EIF3A, ITGB4BP, b(2)gcn, p27(BBP), p27BBP, and CAB.
Some EIF6 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 0.05 ng/mL and as high as 20 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
