Biologische Beschreibung

Spezifität	eIF4A Antibody [A24J8] detektiert endogene Mengen des gesamten eIF4A-Proteins.
Hintergrund	eIF4A ist eine DEAD-Box-RNA-Helikase und ein prototypisches Mitglied der großen Superfamilie 2 (SF2) der Helikasen. Es besteht aus zwei α/β-Domänen mit einer RecA-ähnlichen Topologie, die zwischen offenen und geschlossenen Konformationen wechseln können. Die Helikaseaktivität von eIF4A, die für die RNA-Entwindung während der Translationsinitiation unerlässlich ist, ist allein schwach, wird aber erheblich verstärkt, wenn es an das Gerüstprotein eIF4G innerhalb des eIF4F-Komplexes gebunden ist. Dieser Komplex, bestehend aus eIF4A, eIF4G und eIF4E, ist entscheidend für die Rekrutierung der 40S-ribosomalen Untereinheit an die 5'-Cap-Struktur der mRNA, wodurch das mRNA-Scanning für die Translationsinitiation unterstützt wird. Die N- und C-terminalen Domänen von eIF4A zeigen strukturelle Homologie, nehmen aber in verschiedenen Konformationszuständen unterschiedliche Orientierungen an, wobei die geschlossene Konformation die aktive Form ist, die die ATP-Bindung und die Helikaseaktivität erleichtert.
