Function
Functions in the early steps of protein synthesis of a small number of specific mRNAs. Acts by directing the binding of methionyl-tRNAi to 40S ribosomal subunits. In contrast to the eIF-2 complex, it binds methionyl-tRNAi to 40 S subunits in a codon-dependent manner, whereas the eIF-2 complex binds methionyl-tRNAi to 40 S subunits in a GTP-dependent manner. May act by impiging the expression of specific proteins. -
Tissue specificity
Widely expressed. Expressed at higher level in pancreas, heart, brain and placenta. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the WD repeat EIF2A family.
Contains 3 WD repeats. - Information by UniProt

Western blot - Anti-eIF2A antibody [3A7B11] (ab181467)
Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 2: eIF2A knockout HAP1 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 3: Ramos cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 4: MOLT4 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab181467 observed at 65 kDa. Red - loading control, ab181602, observed at 37 kDa.
ab181467 was shown to recognize eIF2A when eIF2A knockout samples were used, along with additional cross-reactive bands. Wild-type and eIF2A knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab181467 and ab181602 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted at 1/500 and 1/10000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216772 and Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216777 secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging. -
