Background Information
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2) is composed of three subunits, eIF2 alpha, eIF2 beta (EIF2S2), and eIF2 gamma, which are present in equal molar amounts. eIF2 beta plays a central role in the maintenance of what is generally considered a rate-limiting step in mRNA translation. In the early steps of protein synthesis, eIF2 beta binds GTP and Met-tRNA and transfers Met-tRNA to the 40S ribosomal subunit. At the end of the initiation process, GTP bound to eIF2 beta is hydrolyzed to GDP and the eIF2/GDP complex is released from the ribosome. The exchange of GDP bound to eIF2 beta for GTP is a prerequisite to binding Met-tRNA and is mediated by eIF2 beta, which recycles the eIF2 complex for another round of initiation.

Reviews
What customers say
One reviewer (5/5) used this antibody at a 1:1000 dilution on HEK293T cells for Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. They reported that the antibody works well for both IP and WB when targeting eIF2S2, but noted that for eIF2S3 it performs only in WB, not IP. Overall, the user was satisfied with the product's performance.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Leos (Verified Customer) (08-05-2022) | eIF2S2 is good for IP and WB, but eIF2S3 is only for WB
