Anti-EIF5A Antibody

A polyclonal antibody preparation from Antibodies.com targets EIF5A (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 5A), a small conserved protein essential for translation elongation and notable as the only cellular protein modified by the unusual amino acid hypusine. This unconjugated reagent is supplied at 1 mg/ml in phosphate buffered saline with 0.05% sodium azide at approximately pH 7.2, packaged in a 100 µl vial suitable for multiple western blot experiments.

EIF5A contributes to cell proliferation, apoptosis regulation, and stress response, making this reagent relevant to investigations in cancer biology and viral replication research. Confirmed reactivity with human, mouse, and rat samples enables cross-species experimental comparison, while the rabbit polyclonal format provides broad epitope recognition useful for detecting conserved regions of the target protein.

For handling, refrigerate the vial short-term and aliquot the contents for long-term storage to limit freeze-thaw cycles. Sodium azide is included as a preservative to maintain stability across routine western blot workflows.
