Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
The protein encoded by this gene acts at the level of translation initiation to downregulate protein synthesis in response to stress. The encoded protein is a kinase that can be inactivated by hemin. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,enzyme regulation:Hemin inactivates EIF2AK1 by promoting the formation of a disulfide-linked homodimer. Binding of nitric oxide (NO) to the heme iron in the N-terminal heme-binding domain activates the kinase activity, while binding of carbon monoxide (CO) suppresses kinase activity.,function:Mediates down-regulation of protein synthesis in response to various stress conditions by the phosphorylation of EIF2S1 at 'Ser-48' and 'Ser-51'. Protein synthesis is inhibited at the level of initiation.,miscellaneous:Can bind 2 molecules of heme per polypeptide chain.,PTM:Activated by autophosphorylation; phosphorylated predominantly on serine and threonine residues, but also on tyrosine residues.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GCN
