EIF4H Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 272 amino acids (1-248 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 29.9kDa.EIF4H is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4H (EIF4H) is a 248 amino acid protein which localizes to the perinuclear region of the cytoplasm and is expressed as 2 isoforms, termed short and long. EIF4H functions to stimulate the initiation of protein synthesis at the level of mRNA employment. EIF4H stimulates the RNA-dependent ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by EIF4A and EIF4B. EIF4H gene defects linked to Williams- Beuren syndrome (WBS), a rare developmental disorder characterized by cardiovascular and musculo-skeletal abnormalities and caused by the deletion of contiguous genes at 7q11.23.
