      DescriptionRIPAb+ EF1α - RIP Validated Antibody and Primer Set
      OverviewRIPAb+ antibodies are evaluated using the RNA Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. Each RIPAb+ antibody set includes a negative control antibody to ensure specificity of the RIP reaction and is verified for the co-immunoprecipitation of RNA associated specifically with the immunoprecipitated RNA binding protein of interest. Where appropriate, the RIPAb+ set also includes quantitative RT-PCR control primers (RIP Primers) to biologically validate your IP results by successfully co-precipitating the specific RNA targets, such as messenger RNAs. The qPCR protocol and primer sequences are provided, allowing researchers to validate RIP protocols when using the antibody in their experimental context. If a target specific assay is not provided, the RIPAb+ kit is validated using an automated microfluidics-based assay by enrichment of detectable RNA over control immunoprecipitation.

      Background InformationHuman eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha has two isoforms, alpha 1 and alpha 2. The alpha 1 isoform gene encodes a subunit of the elongation factor-1 complex which is responsible for the enzymatic delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the ribosome. The alpha 1 isoform is expressed in brain, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, and pancreas. The other isoform (alpha 2) is expressed in brain, heart and skeletal muscle.
      The alpha 1 isoform is identified as an autoantigen in 66% of patients with Felty syndrome. The gene for the alpha 1 isoform has been found to have multiple copies on many chromosomes, some of which, if not all, represent different pseudogenes. The gene for the alpha 2 may be critical in the development of ovarian cancer.

      Key Applications
      • RNA Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation (RIP)
      • Immunoprecipitation
      • Western Blotting
      Application NotesImmunoprecipitation from RIP Lysate:
      Representative lot data.
      RIP lysate from HeLa cells (2 X 106 cell equivalents per IP) was subjected to immunoprecipitation using 0.5 µg of either a normal mouse IgG or Anti-EF1α antibody. Precipitated proteins (Lane 1: mouse IgG, Lane 2: anti-EF1α) and HeLa whole cell lysate (Lane 3) were resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose and probed with anti-EF1α antibody (1.0 µg/mL).
      Proteins were visualized using One-Step™ IP-Western kit (GenScript Cat. # L00232) (please see figures).

      Automated Microfluidics-based Electrophoretic RNA Separation and Analysis:
      RIP Lysate prepared from HeLa cells (2 X 107 cell equivalents per IP) were subjected to immunoprecipitation using 5 µg of either a normal mouse IgG or Anti-EF1α antibody and the Magna RIP™ RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation Kit (Cat. # 17-700).
      Successful immunoprecipitation of EF1a-associated RNA was verified by automated microfluidics-based electrophoretic RNA separation and analysis. Please refer to the Magna RIP™ (Cat. # 17-700) or EZ-Magna RIP™ (Cat. # 17-701) protocol for experimental details.

      Electropherograms were generated by plotting fluorescence intensities versus migration times.
