Active Recombinant Human EIF2AK3 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: EIF2AK3-3150H
• Product Overview: Human EIF2AK3 (NP_004827.3, 536 a.a. - 1116 a.a.) partial recombinant protein with GST tag expressed in Escherichia coli.

Specification

• Description: The protein encoded by this gene phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2, leading to its inactivation, and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. This protein is thought to modulate mitochondrial function. It is a type I membrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it is induced by ER stress caused by malfolded proteins. Mutations in this gene are associated with Wolcott-Rallison syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
