The following Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 5 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the EIF5 gene. This protein is known to catalyze the hydrolysis of GTP bound to the 40S ribosomal initiation complex (40SmRNAMet-tRNA[F]eIF-2GTP) with the subsequent joining of a 60S ribosomal subunit resulting in the release of eIF-2 and the guanine nucleotide. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 431 residues, a mass of 49.2 kDa, and is a member of the EIF-2-beta/eIF-5 protein family. This protein may also be known as EIF-5A.
There are Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 5 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.78 ng/mL and as high as 50 ng/mL.
