Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, Atg5 Antibody (CST #2630) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nWestern Blotting: 1:1000\nImmunoprecipitation: 1:50\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg\/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.\n\u003cb\u003eProtocol\u003c\/b\u003e\nAvailable protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nAtg5 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Atg5. The observed band represents the Atg12-Atg5 conjugated form, but the antibody likely reacts with free Atg5 as well.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human, Monkey\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nPolyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy-terminus of Atg5. Antibodies were purified by peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nAutophagy is a catabolic process for the autophagosomic-lysosomal degradation of bulk cytoplasmic contents (1,2). Autophagy is generally activated by conditions of nutrient deprivation but has also been associated with a number of physiological processes including development, differentiation, neurodegeneration, infection, and cancer (3). The molecular machinery of autophagy was largely discovered in yeast and referred to as autophagy-related ( ) genes. Formation of the autophagosome involves a ubiquitin-like conjugation system in which Atg12 is covalently bound to Atg5 and targeted to autophagosome vesicles (4-6). This conjugation reaction is mediated by the ubiquitin E1-like enzyme Atg7 and the E2-like enzyme Atg10 (7,8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAPG5; APG5 (autophagy 5, S. cerevisiae)-like; APG5 autophagy 5-like; APG5-like; APG5L; apoptosis specific protein; Apoptosis-specific protein; ASP; ATG5; ATG5 autophagy related 5 homolog; ATG5 autophagy related 5 homolog (S. cerevisiae); ATG5 autophagy related 5-like; Autophagy protein 5; autophagy related 5; hAPG5; SCAR25\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 55\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797936787625,"sku":"2630S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-2630s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
