APG4A Antibody (C-term) Blocking Peptide - Additional info | |
| Gene ID 115201 | |
| Target/Specificity The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP1808c was selected from the C-term region of human Autophagy APG4A. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. | |
| Format The synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml deionized water for a final concentration of 1 mg/ml. | |
| Storage Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. | |
| Precautions This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. | |
APG4A Antibody (C-term) Blocking Peptide - Protein Information | |
| Name ATG4A | |
| Synonyms APG4A, AUTL2 | |
| Function Cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the C-terminal part of either MAP1LC3, GABARAPL2 or GABARAP, allowing the liberation of form I. A subpopulation of form I is subsequently converted to a smaller form (form II). Form II, with a revealed C-terminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes. Preferred substrate is GABARAPL2 followed by MAP1LC3A and GABARAP | |
| Cellular Location Cytoplasm (Probable). | |
| Tissue Location Widely expressed, at a low level, and the highest expression is observed in skeletal muscle and brain. Also detected in fetal liver | |

BACKGROUND
Macroautophagy is the major inducible pathway for the general turnover of cytoplasmic constituents in eukaryotic cells, it is also responsible for the degradation of active cytoplasmic enzymes and organelles during nutrient starvation. Macroautophagy involves the formation of double-membrane bound autophagosomes which enclose the cytoplasmic constituent targeted for degradation in a membrane bound structure, which then fuse with the lysosome (or vacuole) releasing a single-membrane bound autophagic bodies which are then degraded within the lysosome (or vacuole). APG4A is a cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the C-terminal part of either MAP1LC3, GABARAPL2 or GABARAP, allowing the liberation of form I. A subpopulation of form I is subsequently converted to a smaller form (form II). Form II, with a revealed C-terminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes. Preferred substrate is GABARAPL2 followed by MAP1LC3A and GABARAP.
