Recombinant Human EIF4EBP2 Protein (His Tag)

Product Specifications

Background

Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E-Binding Protein 2 (EIF4EBP2) is a member of the Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E Binding Protein Family. EIF4EBP2 regulates eIF4E activity by preventing its assembly into the eIF4F complex, mediates the regulation of protein translation by hormones, growth factors and other stimuli that signal through the MAP kinase pathway. This regulation of is associated to cell proliferation, cell differentiation and viral infection. Phosphorylated EIF4EBP2 on serine and threonine residues in response to insulin, EGF and PDGF.
