Description

The 4E-BP Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means to investigate regulation of cap-dependent translation within the cell. The kit contains primary and secondary antibodies to perform two Western blots with each antibody.

Storage

Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Background

Translation repressor protein 4E-BP1 (also known as PHAS-1) inhibits cap-dependent translation by binding to the translation initiation factor eIF4E. Hyperphosphorylation of 4E-BP1 disrupts this interaction and results in activation of cap-dependent translation (1). Both the PI3 kinase/Akt pathway and FRAP/mTOR kinase regulate 4E-BP1 activity (2,3). Multiple 4E-BP1 residues are phosphorylated in vivo (4). While phosphorylation by FRAP/mTOR at Thr37 and Thr46 does not prevent the binding of 4E-BP1 to eIF4E, it is thought to prime 4E-BP1 for subsequent phosphorylation at Ser65 and Thr70 (5).
4E-BP2 and 4E-BP3 share high sequence homology with 4E-BP1, including conservation of the major FRAP/mTOR-dependent phosphorylation sites. Preliminary data suggests that phosphorylation of 4E-BP2 is regulated in a similar manner to that of 4E-BP1, although phosphorylation of this protein has not been as extensively studied (6).

    Immunoprecipitation of Phospho-4E-BP1 (Ser65) from MCF-7 cell extracts. Cells were starved for 24 hours in serum-free medium and underwent a 1 hour amino acid deprivation. Amino acids were replenished for 1 hour. Cells were then treated with 100 nM insulin for 30 minutes. Lane 1 is 10% input, lane 2 is Normal Rabbit IgG #2729, and lane 3 is Phospho-4E-BP1 (Ser65) Antibody. Western blot was performed using Phospho-4E-BP1 (Ser65) Antibody #9451.

    Simple Western™ analysis of lysates (0.1 mg/mL) from HepG2 cells using 4E-BP1 (53H11) Rabbit mAb #9644. The virtual lane view (left) shows the target band (as indicated) at 1:50 and 1:250 dilutions of primary antibody. The corresponding electropherogram view (right) plots chemiluminescence by molecular weight along the capillary at 1:50 (blue line) and 1:250 (green line) dilutions of primary antibody. This experiment was performed under reducing conditions on the Jess™ Simple Western instrument from ProteinSimple, a BioTechne brand, using the 2-40 kDa separation module.
