Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-eIF2B3 antibody [1H3] (AB171093)
ab171093 staining eIF2B3 in the cytoplasm of Human uterus tissue (right) compared with a negative control in the absence of primary antibody (left) by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). To expose target proteins, antigen retrieval method was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0), microwaved for 8-15 min. Tissues were blocked in 3% H2O2-methanol for 15 min at room temperature, washed with ddH2O and PBS. Tissue sections were incubated with the primary antibody (1 : 100 in 3% BSA-PBS) overnight at 4°C. A HRP-conjugated anti-mouse was used as the secondary antibody, followed by colorimetric detection using a DAB kit. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and dehydrated with ethanol and xylene to prep for mounting.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-eIF2B3 antibody [1H3] (AB171093)
Immunofluorescent analysis of eIF2B3 (green) showing staining in the cytoplasm of COS7 cells (right) compared to a negative control without primary antibody (left). Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with an eIF2B3 monoclonal antibody (ab171093) in 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1 : 50 and incubated overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight-conjugated secondary antibody in PBS at room temperature in the dark. F-actin (red) was stained with a fluorescent red phalloidin and nuclei (blue) were stained with Hoechst or DAPI. Images were taken at a magnification of 60x.

Biological function summary
The eIF2B complex that includes eIF2B3 operates as a critical regulator in the synthesis of proteins by mediating the exchange of GDP for GTP on eIF2. This regulation affects the initiation of mRNA translation during cellular stress responses. The eIF2B complex consisting of five subunits including eIF2B3 facilitates the recycling of eIF2 essential for continued protein translation under normal conditions. This subunit's interactions within the complex are pivotal for modulating translational control mechanisms in response to environmental signals.
Pathways
The activity of eIF2B3 appears central to the integrated stress response (ISR) pathway influencing the translational control under diverse stress conditions like nutrient deprivation or viral infections. It connects primarily with eIF2 which when phosphorylated binds strongly to eIF2B inhibiting the guanine nucleotide exchange activity essential for protein synthesis progression. The ISR pathway's regulation of protein synthesis is key for the cellular adaptation during metabolic stress highlighting eIF2B3's significance in maintaining homeostasis.
