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.

Purification notes
|
Purified from rabbit serum by sequential epitope-specific chromatography. The antibody has been negatively preadsorbed using a non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the site of phosphorylation to remove antibody that is reactive with non-phosphorylated eIF-4E. The final product is generated by affinity chromatography using an eIF-4E-derived peptide that is phosphorylated at serine 209.

Western blot - eIF4E (phospho S209) antibody (ab4774)
Predicted band size : 25 kDa
HeLa cell lysates (A) and HeLa cell lysates treated with alkaline phosphatase (B) were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 4-20% Tris-glycine gel. The proteins were then transferred to PVDF membrane. Membranes were incubated with 1 µg/mL ab4774. After washing, membranes were incubated with goat (ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase and bands were detected using the Tropix WesternStar detection method.

Western blot - eIF4E (phospho S209) antibody (ab4774)
Predicted band size : 25 kDa
Extracts of HeLa cells were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 4-20% Tris-glycine gel and transferred to PVDF. The membrane was blocked with a 5% BSA-TBST buffer for one hour at room temperature, either left untreated (1-4) or treated with lambda (λ) phosphatase (5), and then incubated with the eIF4E (phospho S209) antibody for two hours at room temperature in a 3% BSA-TBST buffer, following prior incubation with: no peptide (1,5), the nonphosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphopeptide immunogen (2), a generic phosphoserine-containing peptide (3), or the phosphopeptide immunogen (4). After washing, the membrane was incubated with goat F(ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase and signals were detected using the Pierce SuperSignal™ method.
The data show that only the peptide corresponding to eIF4E (phospho S209) blocks the antibody signal, demonstrating the specificity of the antibody. The data also show that phosphatase stripping eliminates the signal, verifying that the antibody is phospho-specific.
