Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from mouse LC3 B conjugated to blue carrier protein has been used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in rat.
Accession
Also known
MLP3B, Map1alc3, Map1lc3, Microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta, MAP1A/MAP1B LC3 B, MAP1A/1B light chain 3 B, MAP1 light chain 3-like protein 2, Autophagy-related protein LC3 B, Autophagy-related ubiquitin-like modifier LC3 B, Mpl3, MGC93422
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.
FUNCTION: Probably involved in formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes). May mediate MAPlA and MAPlB microtubule binding activity during development of the nervous system
SUBUNIT: 3 different light chains, LC1, LC2 and LC3, can associate with MAP1A and MAP1B proteins.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Intracytoplasmic membrane; Lipid-anchor. Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome membrane; Lipid-anchor.Note: LC3-II binds to the autophagic membranes.
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
