Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity RTN3 (F5X9D) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total RTN3 protein. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human RTN3 protein. Background Reticulon-3 (RTN3), a member of the reticulon protein family, plays a crucial role in maintaining the tubular shape and structural integrity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) network (1,2). The longest isoform of RTN3 (Rtn3L) carries six active LC3-interacting region domains, which are essential for LC3/GABARAP binding, fragmentation of ER tubules, and its function as an ER-phagy receptor (3,4). Rtn3L is also recruited to ER-endosome membrane contact sites by the endosomal protein Rab9a, where it promotes endosome maturation and cargo sorting (5). RTN3 is highly expressed in neuronal tissues and is a negative modulator of β-amyloid converting enzyme 1 (BACE1), the enzyme that cleaves amyloid precursor protein (APP) to release β-amyloid peptides (6). Therefore, altered expression of RTN3 may modulate amyloid plaque formation, a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (7,8).
