Descrizione

General description

Ubiquitin-like protein ATG12 (UniProt: O94817; also known as Autophagy-related protein 12, APG12-like) is encoded by the ATG12 (also known as APG12, APG12L) gene (Gene ID 9140) in human. Autophagy, a highly regulated homeostatic degradative process allows cells to reallocate nutrients from less important to more essential processes under extreme conditions of starvation. Autophagy also prevents the buildup of damaged proteins and organelles that cause chronic tissue damage and disease. It is a multi-phase process where in the initial phase, the cell senses signals released in response to lack of nutrients, hypoxia, or other forms of stress. The second phase involves the formation of the phagophore. The ULK1,2/Atg13 complex catalyzes the scaffolding of Atg protein complexes onto the phagophore membrane. In the third phase elongation of the phagophore to form the autophagosome occurs that is mediated by two protein conjugation systems. ATG12 plays a crucial role during autophagosome formation. It undergoes conjugation to ATG5, mediated by ATG7, a ubiquitin E1-like enzyme, and ATG10, a ubiquitin E2-like enzyme, in an ATP-dependent manner. The ATG12-ATG5 conjugate that acts as an autophagy factor exhibits E3 ligase-like activity which facilitates the lipidation of members of the LC3 family. The ATG12-ATG5 complex interacts with ATG16L1 to form an ATG12-ATG5-ATG16L1 complex. This complex conjugates phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) to microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3 (LC3) to form LC3-PE conjugate (known as LC3-II). LC3-II is recruited to autophagosomal membranes and is translocated to autolysosomal lumen where it is degraded. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Clone 1H18 is a ZooMAb^® Rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects ATG12. It targets an epitope within 18 amino acids from the C-terminal half.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Preparation Note

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.

Reconstitute lyophilized antibody pellet with 25μL of ultrapure water or Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). Please refer to our reconstitution protocol and the specific application guidance on the suggested starting dilutions and sample type.
