Reactivity of vertebrate-directed phospho-eEF2 antibody against the Caenorhabditis elegans orthologue phospho-EEF-2 [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

Eukaryotic protein translation is divided into three mains stages: initiation, elongation and termination. Regulation of this process occurs at the initiation and elongation step. eEF2 kinase phosphorylates eEF2 factor, blocking its ribosome interaction and thus translation elongation. This kinase a...

description Eukaryotic protein translation is divided into three mains stages: initiation, elongation and termination. Regulation of this process occurs at the initiation and elongation step. eEF2 kinase phosphorylates eEF2 factor, blocking its ribosome interaction and thus translation elongation. This kinase activity can be detected by measuring eEF2 phosphorylation status. Here I show that vertebrate-specific antibody against phospho-eEF2 has excellent reactivity against C. elegans orthologue protein phospho-EEF-2.
