Anti-EEF2K Antibody

EEF2K is a calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase that regulates protein synthesis by phosphorylating eukaryotic elongation factor 2, making it a central target in studies of translational control, cellular stress responses, and metabolic regulation. This unconjugated rabbit polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com is raised against EEF2K and validated for use in Western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence workflows on human samples. Supplied as 100 µL of liquid antiserum in a vial, the reagent is suited to standard immunostaining and lysate-based detection protocols, including visualization of EEF2K expression in fixed tissue sections and cultured cell lines. Researchers investigating mTOR signaling, autophagy regulation, and cancer cell proliferation frequently deploy this reagent to probe how translational elongation is shut down under nutrient deprivation or hypoxia. The polyclonal format increases the likelihood of recognizing multiple epitopes on the kinase, supporting reliable signal across varied sample preparations. For short-term use, aliquot and store refrigerated to preserve activity; avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity.
