- Description
- This antibody detects both LC3A and LC3B.|Western blot bands are seen at ~19 kDa, representing LC3-I, and ~17 kDa, representing LC3-II. The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors. Recommended positive controls: LC3B overexpression lysate, mouse brain whole tissue lysate (adult whole normal), human brain whole tissue lysate (adult whole normal), Neuro2a whole cell lysate, Neuro2a Chloroquine-treated/untreated cell lysate, HeLa chloroquine-treated/untreated cell lysate This antibody is predicted to react with Bovine based on 100% sequence homology.

- Western blot analysis of LC3A/LC3B in heart tissue lysates. Samples were incubated in LC3A/LC3B polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-16931). Heart tissue lysates from mice which were subjected or not to 48 hours of starvation. The signal was developed using ECL method and this LC3 antibody was found to detect both forms of LC3, i.e. LC3A and LC3B. As expected, the levels of LC3B form were higher in the heart tissue lysates from starved mice.
