Viral mimic of eIF-2-alpha that acts as a pseudosubstrate for EIF2AK2/PKR kinase. Inhibits therefore eIF-2-alpha phosphorylation by host EIF2AK2/PKR kinase and prevents protein synthesis shutoff.

Source:
Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-88 from vaccinia virus Protein K3, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in Yeast.

Molecular Weight:
~12.6kD

Amino Acid Sequence:
MLAFCYSLPNAGDVIKGRVYEKDYALYIYLFDYPHFEAILAESVKMHMDRYVEYRDKLVGKTVKVKVIRVDYTKGYIDVNYKRMCRHQ

Storage and Stability:
Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile ddH2O. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
