Our Anti-eEF1A2 (Ser358) rabbit polyclonal phosphospecific primary antibody from PhosphoSolutions is produced in-house. It detects human and mouse eEF1A2 (Ser358) and is antigen affinity purified from pooled serum. It is great for use in WB.
Western blot of mouse hippocampal lysate showing specific immunolabeling of the ~50 kDa eEF1A2 protein phosphorylated at Ser358 in the first lane (-). Phosphospecificity is shown in the second lane (+) where immunolabeling is completely eliminated by lysate treatment with lambda phosphatase (λ-Ptase, 800 units/1mg protein for 30 min).
Eukaryotic Elongation Factor eEF1A exists in two variant forms, eEF1A1 and eEF1A2. While eEF1A1 is almost ubiquitously expressed in humans, eEF1A2 is predominantly found in heart, brain, and skeletal muscle (Knudsen et al., 1993). Expression of eEF1A2 may have a role in ovarian cancer, as its expression is drastically increased in human ovarian tumors (Anand et al., 2002). Due to differences in structural models between the two isoforms, eEF1A1 and eEF1A2 likely have variant-specific phosphorylation sites (Soares et al., 2009). Ribosome-associated JNK phosphorylates Ser-358 on eEF1A2 to promote degradation of newly synthesized polypeptides by the proteasome (Gandin et al., 2013).
