Description (eCommerce)
Eukaryotic initiation factor 3 subunit K (eIf3K) is one of at least 13 non-identical protein subunits of eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3). eIF3 is the largest eIF (~650 kDa) and functions to facilitate binding of the 40S ribosomal subunit to the 5’-end of cellular mRNAs near the cap structure (m7GpppN). eIF3 has been found to localize to both the nucleus and cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, eIf3K associates with keratin 18 in intermediate filaments of epithelial cells and may have an apoptosis-promoting function. It also has been shown to interact with cyclin D3.
Description (Vector)
The 700-kD eukaryotic translation initiation factor-3 (eIF3) is the largest eIF and contains at least 12 subunits, including EIF2S12. eIF3 plays an essential role in translation by binding directly to the 40S ribosomal subunit and promoting formation of the 40S preinitiation complex (Mayeur et al., 2003 (PubMed 14519125)).(supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008)

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.
