APG5 [RB12327], Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Partner: Abcepta, Inc.

Applications:WB, IF, IHC-P
Species Reactivity:Human
Isotype:Rabbit IgG
Purification:Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody
Description:Macroautophagy is the major inducible pathway for the general turnover of cytoplasmic constituents in eukaryotic cells, it is also responsible for the degradation of active cytoplasmic enzymes and organelles during nutrient starvation. Macroautophagy involves the formation of double-membrane bound autophagosomes which enclose the cytoplasmic constituent targeted for degradation in a membrane bound structure, which then fuse with the lysosome (or vacuole) releasing a single-membrane bound autophagic bodies which are then degraded within the lysosome (or vacuole). APG5, required for autophagy, conjugates to ATG12 and associates with an isolation membrane to form a cup-shaped isolation membrane and autophagosome. The conjugate detaches from the membrane immediately before or after autophagosome formation is completed. APG5 may also 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.
Further Information:This ATG5 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the full length of human ATG5.
Synonym:Autophagy protein 5, APG5-like, Apoptosis-specific protein, ATG5, APG5L, ASP
Ascension Number:Q9H1Y0
NCBI EntrezGene:9474
Shipping Conditions:Ship on cold packs
Storage:Maintain refrigerated at 2-8 C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20 C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Usage:Research use only

Fluorescent image of U251 cells stained with ATG5 antibody. U251 cells were treated with Chloroquine (50 ?M,16h), then fixed with 4% PFA (20 min), permeabilized with Triton X-100 (0.2%, 30 min). Cells were then incubated with AP1812c ATG5 primary antibody (1:200, 2 h at room temperature). For secondary antibody, Alexa Fluor� 488 conjugated donkey anti-rabbit antibody (green) was used (1:1000, 1h). Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst 33342 (blue) (10 ?g/ml, 5 min). ATG5 immunoreactivity is localized to autophagic vacuoles in the cytoplasm of U251 cells.
