Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from human GABARAP conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein has been used as the antigen.
Accession
Also known
GABA(A) receptor-associated protein, MM46, GABARAP, FLC3B, HT004, FLJ25768, MGC120154, MGC120155
Target
Autophagy is the process by which endogenous proteins and damaged organelles are destroyed intracellularly. Autophagy is postulated to be essential for cell homeostasis and cell remodeling during differentiation, metamorphosis, non-apoptotic cell death, and aging. Reduced levels of autophagy have been described in some malignant tumors, and a role for autophagy in controlling the unregulated cell growth linked to cancer has been proposed.
GABARAP belongs ot a large family of proteins that mediate intracellular membrane trafficking and/or fusion. GABARAP binds not only to GABA, type A but also to tubulin, gephrin, and ULK1.
May play a role in intracellular transport of GABA(A) receptors and its interaction with the cytoskeleton. It interacts with GPHN and NSF; interacts with GABRG2, beta-tubulin and ULK1.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Intracytoplasmic membrane. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton.
Note: Largely associated with intracellular membrane structures including the Golgi apparatus and post-synaptic cisternae. Colocalizes with microtubules.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Heart, brain, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.
Storage
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Expiry Date
