LC3 A/B Rabbit polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
Probably involved in formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes).|PTM:The precursor molecule is cleaved by APG4B/ATG4B to form the cytosolic form| LC3-I. This is activated by APG7L/ATG7| transferred to ATG3 and conjugated to phospholipid to form the membrane-bound form| LC3-II.|Belongs to the MAP1 LC3 family.|subcellular location:LC3-II binds to the autophagic membranes.|subunit:3 different light chains| LC1| LC2 and LC3| can associate with MAP1A and MAP1B proteins.|tissue specificity:Most abundant in heart| brain| liver| skeletal muscle and testis but absent in thymus and peripheral blood leukocytes.|

Research Area: Cancer, Cardiovascular, Metabolism, Signal transduction, Neuroscience

Synonyms: LC3 A/B

Immunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172. AA range:140-189

Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.

Formulation: Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.

Concentration: 1 mg/ml

Storage:
-20°C for 1 year
