Displacement assays. To determine whether the correct cap-binding protein is able to displace a mismatched cap-binding protein in a mixed complex, the indicated amounts of eIF4E or eIFiso4E were added to 2.5 pmol of mixed complexes, eIF4F, or eIFiso4F. A and B were probed with mouse monoclonal antibody (8F7) to eIF4E (1/1000). The blots were stripped and probed with rabbit polyclonal antibody raised to native gel-purified eIFiso4E (1/1000) shown in C and D. The antibody to native eIFiso4E displays a small amount of cross-reactivity with eIFiso4G (see D, eIFiso4G-eIF4E with no eIFiso4E added).
