Biolegend, 852002, Purified anti-TFEB Antibody, 100μg

The autophagy-lysosomal pathway is involved in the degradation of long-lived proteins. The transcription factor EB (TFEB) plays a critical role in regulating basic cellular processes, such as lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy. The subcellular localization and activity of TFEB are regulated by mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR)-mediated phosphorylation. TFEB is also involved in physiological processes, and it induces the intracellular clearance of pathogenic factors in a variety of diseases, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, suggesting that novel therapeutic strategies could be based on the modulation of TFEB activity.

RRID: AB_2728585 (BioLegend Cat. No. 852001) AB_2728586 (BioLegend Cat. No. 852002)
Structure: TFEB is a 476 amino acid protein with a molecular weight mass of approximately 53kD.
Distribution: Tissue distribution: TFEB is expressed in numerous cell types of the central nervous system (CNS). Cellular distribution: Cytosolic and nucleus.
Function: TFEB is a major regulator of autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis.
Interaction: TFEB interacts with the mTOR complex and its activity is thought to be regulated through the phosphorylation by mTOR.
