Product datasheet Anti-APG5L/ATG5 antibody ab106551 2 Images Overview Product name Anti-APG5L/ATG5 antibody Description Chicken polyclonal to APG5L/ATG5 Specificity Three isoforms of APG5L/ATG5 are known to exist; ab106551 will only detect the longest isoform. Tested applications IHC-P, WB Species reactivity Reacts with: Mouse, Rat, Human Immunogen A 16 amino acid synthetic peptide from near the N terminus of Human APG5L/ATG5 (EAW48415). Positive control Mouse spleen tissue lysate; Human spleen tissue. Properties Form Liquid Storage instructions Shipped at 4°C. Store at 4°C (stable for up to 12 months). Storage buffer Preservative: 0.02% Sodium Azide Constituents: PBS Purity Immunogen affinity purified Clonality Polyclonal Isotype IgY Applications Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab106551 in the following tested applications. The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews Notes IHC-P Use a concentration of 2.5 µg/ml. WB Use a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. Predicted molecular weight: 32 kDa. Target Function Required for autophagy. Conjugates to ATG12 and associates with isolation membrane to form 1 cup-shaped isolation membrane and autophagosome. The conjugate detaches from the membrane immediately before or after autophagosome formation is completed. May play an important role in the apoptotic process, possibly within the modified cytoskeleton. Its expression is a relatively late event in the apoptotic process, occurring downstream of caspase activity. Tissue specificity Ubiquitous. The mRNA is present at similar levels in viable and apoptotic cells, whereas the protein is dramatically highly expressed in apoptotic cells. Sequence similarities Belongs to the ATG5 family. Post-translational modifications Conjugated to ATG12; which is essential for autophagy, but is not required for association with isolation membrane. Cellular localization Cytoplasm. Colocalizes with nonmuscle actin.
