          LC3A/LC3B Antibody (PA5-22731) in WB

          Western blot was performed using Anti-LC3A/LC3B Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Product # PA5-22731) and 14-16 kDa bands corresponding to LC3B were observed across cell lines tested and increased upon Chloroquine treatment. Whole cell extracts (30 µg lysate) of NIH3T3 (Lane 1), NIH3T3 treated with Chloroquine (50uM for 12 Hours) (Lane 2), HCT 116 (Lane 3) and HCT 116 treated with Chloroquine (50uM for 12 Hours) (Lane 4) were electrophoresed using Novex® NuPAGE® 12 % Bis-Tris gel (Product # NP0342BOX).

          Target Information

          Autophagy is a process of intracellular bulk degradation in which cytoplasmic components, including organelles, are sequestered within double-membrane vesicles that deliver the contents to the lysosome/vacuole for degradation. During macroautophagy, the sequestering vesicles, termed autophagosomes, fuse with the lysosome or vacuole resulting in the delivery of an inner vesicle (autophagic body) into the lumen of the degradative compartment. There are 16 proteins participating in the autophagy pathway in human. The autophagy protein LC3, a mammalian homologue of Atg8, was originally identified as microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3. It is a component of both the MAP1A and MAP1B microtubule-binding domains and the heavy-chain independent regulation of LC3 expression might modify MAP1 microtubule-binding activity during development. LC3 is the only known mammalian protein identified that stably associates with the autophagosome membranes. LC3-I is cytosolic and LC3-II is membrane bound and enriched in the autophagic vacuole fraction. The detection of LC3-I to LC3-II conversion is a useful and sensitive marker for distinguishing autophagy in mammalian cells.
