Anti-EIF1 Antibody

Raised in rabbit against eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1 (EIF1), this polyclonal primary antibody from Antibodies.com is supplied as 100 µl of unconjugated antiserum at 1 mg/ml in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) with 15 mM sodium azide at approximately pH 7.2. Validated for Western blot on human and mouse samples, the reagent targets a conserved ~12 kDa protein that directs ribosomal scanning and start codon selection during cap-dependent translation.

The polyclonal format allows recognition of multiple epitopes on EIF1, supporting reliable detection in denatured lysates prepared from cell lines or tissue. Sodium azide is included as a preservative; laboratories can aliquot the vial into single-use portions to minimize freeze-thaw cycles and protect the antibody from light during storage. As an unconjugated reagent, it gives researchers flexibility to pair it with their preferred HRP, fluorescent, or biotinylated secondary detection system in standard immunoblotting workflows.
