Relevance

eIF4E, a protein modulates translation of maternal mRNAs in early embryos before the onset of zygotic transcription. eIF4E also influences the overall rate of translation. eIF4E binds to the 7 methyl GTP cap structure of eukaryotic mRNAs. Phosphorylation of eIF4E on serine 209 regulates the affinity of this protein for the 7 methyl GTP cap and/or RNA. Phosphorylation also enhances the interaction of eIF4E with eIF4G, which form a complex known as eIF4F. eIF4E phosphorylation is correlated with increased translational rate in a number of cell types. Several kinases are currently being investigated as potential regulators of eIF4E including PKC and/or the MAP kinase activated Mnk.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - eIF4E antibody (ab1126)
ab1126 at 1/100 staining human epithelial cells by ICC/IF. The cells were paraformaldehyde fixed and blocked with BSA prior to incubation with the antibody for 1 hour. An Alexa-Fluor ® 647 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as the secondary. This image is courtesy of an anonymous Abreview
