Invitrogen™ ATG4B Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ PA118295

Catalog No. 01-670-548

Description

Reconstitute in 100 μL of sterile water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. After reconstitution keep aliquots at -20 °C for a higher stability, and at 4 °C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid repetitive freeze/thaw cycles.

Cysteine protease ATG4b is an enzyme which is coded by ATG4b gene. Autophagy is a critical cellular homeostatic process that controls the turnover of damaged organelles and protein. ATG4bis a deubiquitin-like protease that plays dual roles in the core machinery of autophagy. ATG4b, cleaves the C-terminal amino acid of ATG8 family proteins MAP1LC3, GABARAPL1, GABARAPL2 and GABARAP, to reveal a C-terminal glycine. Exposure of the glycine at the C-terminus is essential for ATG8 proteins conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and insertion to membranes, which is necessary for autophagy. ATG4b is mainly expressed in the skeletal muscle, brain, heart, liver and pancreas.
