Mouse Anti-Porcine Eukaryotic Translation Elongation Factor 1 Alpha 2 (EEF1A2) Monoclonal Antibody

Porcine eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha 2 (eEF1A2) is a member of the eEF1A family of proteins, which are crucial for the elongation phase of protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. eEF1A2, in particular, works in conjunction with eEF1B to facilitate the binding of aminoacyl-tRNAs to the ribosome during translation, ensuring the accurate incorporation of amino acids into growing polypeptide chains. As a molecular target, eEF1A2 is significant due to its essential role in protein synthesis, a process that is often dysregulated in various diseases, including cancer, where rapid cell proliferation requires increased protein production. Additionally, eEF1A2 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, as its dysregulation can affect neuronal function and survival.
