EEF1D Blocking Peptide – The purity is >90%,tested by HPLC and MS. Purity

This gene encodes a subunit of the elongation factor-1 complex, which is responsible for the enzymatic delivery of aminoacyl tRNAs to the ribosome. This subunit, delta, functions as guanine nucleotide exchange factor. It is reported that following HIV-1 infection, this subunit interacts with HIV-1 Tat. This interaction results in repression of translation of host cell proteins and enhanced translation of viral proteins. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been found for this gene. Related pseudogenes have been defined on chromosomes 1, 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

EEF1D: EF-1-beta and EF-1-delta stimulate the exchange of GDP bound to EF-1-alpha to GTP. Belongs to the EF-1-beta/EF-1-delta family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
