Western Blotting Enhanced Validation - Recombinant Antibody Technology Lysates from U2OS (Lane 1), HEK293 (Lane 2), and Cos7 (Lane 3) cells were probed with Cat. No. ZRB1719, Anti-eIF-4E, clone 1K7 ZooMAb® Rabbit Monoclonal (1:1,000 dilution). Proteins were visualized using a Donkey Anti-Rabbit IgG secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system. Arrow indicates eIF-4E (~31 kDa).
Affinity Binding Assay Enhanced Validation - Recombinant Antibody Technology 100 mg/mL of non-specific control peptide (Run 1) or eIF-4E peptide (Run 2) were analyzed by affinity binding assay using Cat. No. ZRB1719, Anti-eIF-4E, clone 1K7 ZooMAb® Rabbit Monoclonal. The binding of this antibody to eIF-4E peptide displayed a KD of 1.5 x 10-6, whereas binding to non-specific control peptide displayed a KD of 2.6 x 10-3.

| Physical form: | Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL. |
| Reconstitution: | 300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type. |
| Specificity: | Clone 1K7 is a ZooMAb® Rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF-4E). It targets an epitope within 25 amino acids from the N-terminal region. |
| Storage and Stability: | Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws. |
| Target description: | Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (UniProt: P06730; also known as eIF-4E, eIF4E, eIF-4F 25 kDa subunit, mRNA cap-binding protein) is encoded by the EIF4E (also known as EIF4EL1, EIF4F) gene (Gene ID: 1977) in human. eIF-4E, a member of the eukaryotic initiation factor 4E family, is a cytoplasmic factor that recognizes and binds the 7-methylguanosine-contain |
