Anti-ATG14 Antibody

The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE) .

Required for both basal and inducible autophagy. Determines the localization of the autophagy-specific PI3-kinase complex PI3KC3-C1 (PubMed:18843052, PubMed:19050071) . Plays a role in autophagosome formation and MAP1LC3/LC3 conjugation to phosphatidylethanolamine (PubMed:19270696, PubMed:20713597) . Promotes BECN1 translocation from the trans-Golgi network to autophagosomes (PubMed:20713597) . Enhances PIK3C3 activity in a BECN1-dependent manner. Essential for the autophagy-dependent phosphorylation of BECN1 (PubMed:23878393) . Stimulates the phosphorylation of BECN1, but suppresses the phosphorylation PIK3C3 by AMPK (PubMed:23878393) . Binds to STX17-SNAP29 binary t- SNARE complex on autophagosomes and primes it for VAMP8 interaction to promote autophagosome-endolysosome fusion (PubMed:25686604) . Modulates the hepatic lipid metabolism (By similarity) .
