Description (eCommerce)
Eukaryotic initiation factor 2 beta (eIF2beta) is the beta subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF-2). eIF-2 forms a ternary complex with the 40S ribosomal subunit, GTP, and initiatior tRNA to function in the early steps of translation. The eIF-2 beta subunit catalyzes the exchange of GDP for GTP so that EIF-2 can function in another round of initiation.
Description (Vector)
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (EIF-2) functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA and binding to a 40S ribosomal subunit. EIF-2 is composed of three subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, with the protein encoded by this gene representing the beta subunit. The beta subunit catalyzes the exchange of GDP for GTP, which recycles the EIF-2 complex for another round of initiation.

About Storage Conditions

All our viral products should be kept at -80°C. At this temperature, the virus will remain stable for 6-12 months (and in some cases, up to 2 years). Once thawed, the product can be stored at 4°C for 2-3 weeks without significant loss of biological activity. We recommend aliquoting your vectors into low protein binding tubes upon receipt. This helps avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, as well as prevent loss of virus. To maintain accurate titer, aliquot in at least 20ul per tube.
