Product Overview
Description | Recombinant Human Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E-Binding Protein 2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Ile120 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus. |
Accession | Q13542 |
Synonym | Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E-Binding Protein 2; 4E-BP2; eIF4E-Binding Protein 2; EIF4EBP2 |
Gene Background | Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E-Binding Protein 2 (EIF4EBP2) is a member of the Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 4E Binding Protein Family. EIF4EBP2 regulates eIF4E activity by preventing its assembly into the eIF4F complex, mediates the regulation of protein translation by hormones, growth factors and other stimuli that signal through the MAP kinase pathway. This regulation of is associated to cell proliferation, cell differentiation and viral infection. Phosphorylated EIF4EBP2 on serine and threonine residues in response to insulin, EGF and PDGF. |

Target Details
Target Function | Repressor of translation initiation involved in synaptic plasticity, learning and memory formation. Regulates EIF4E activity by preventing its assembly into the eIF4F complex: hypophosphorylated form of EIF4EBP2 competes with EIF4G1/EIF4G3 and strongly binds to EIF4E, leading to repress translation. In contrast, hyperphosphorylated form dissociates from EIF4E, allowing interaction between EIF4G1/EIF4G3 and EIF4E, leading to initiation of translation. EIF4EBP2 is enriched in brain and acts as a regulator of synapse activity and neuronal stem cell renewal via its ability to repress translation initiation. Mediates the regulation of protein translation by hormones, growth factors and other stimuli that signal through the MAP kinase and mTORC1 pathways. |
