Recombinant Human MAP1LC3B Protein

Microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3B (MAP1LC3B) is a member of the highly conserved ATG8 protein family. ATG8 proteins are present in all known eukaryotic organisms. MAP1LC3B is one of the four genes in the MAP1LC3 subfamily (others include MAP1LC3A, MAP1LC3C, and MAP1LC3B2) . It is moat abundantly expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle and testis. LMAP1LC3B is a subunit of neuronal microtubule and functions in formation of autophagosomal vacuoles (autophagosomes) . It associated MAP1A and MAP1B proteins, which are involved in microtubule assembly and important for neurogenesis. MAP1LC3B also plays a role in autophagy, a process that involves the bulk degradation of cytoplasmic component.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
