EIF4A2, Human (GST)

EIF4A2, an ATP-dependent RNA helicase, is a vital subunit of the eIF4F complex, pivotal in cap recognition and mRNA binding to ribosomes. In translation initiation, EIF4A2 crucially unwinds RNA secondary structures in mRNA 5'-UTRs. This activity facilitates small ribosomal subunit binding and efficient scanning for the initiator codon, orchestrating translation initiation. EIF4A2 Protein, Human (GST) is the recombinant human-derived EIF4A2 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-GST labeled tag.
