Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from human autophagy-related protein 3 (ATG3, APG3, APG3L, APG3-like, hApg3, protein PC3-96) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein has been used as the antigen.
Accession
Also known
ATG3, APG3, APG3L, APG3-like, protein PC3-96
Target
Autophagy is a process of bulk degradation of cytoplasmic components by the lysosome or vacuole. Human ATG3 displays the same enzymatic characteristics in vitro as yeast Apg3, a protein-conjugating enzyme essential for autophagy.
FUNCTION: GABARAPL1 (GABARAPL2 or GABARAP or MAP1LC3)-modifier protein conjugating enzyme involved in its E2-like covalent binding to PE. ATG7 (E1-like enzyme) facilitates this reaction by forming an E1-E2 complex with ATG3 (E2-like enzyme). Preferred substrate is MAP1LC3A. Formation of the GABARAPL1-PE conjugate is essential for autophagy.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed, with a highest expression in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver and placenta.
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
12 months after reconstitution
