Background: eIF4E is a mRNA Cap-binding protein involved in an early rate limiting step in the initiation of protein synthesis. eIF4E undergoes phosphorylation at Ser209 in response to growth factors and other extracellular stimuli. This reaction is thought to be catalyzed in cells by the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase interacting kinases (Mnk's) and an insulin-stimulated cytosolic protamine kinase (cPK, GLO117-100) which is activated by members of the MAP kinase family. eIF4E also undergoes phosphorylation at Thr210 following incubation with cPK. Preparations of eIF4ES124A undergo phosphorylation at Ser209 and Thr210 and may be useful as control in studies to examine the phosphorylation and function of the native protein.
