Rabbit Anti-phospho-APG4B (Ser34)/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
ATG4B is a cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the SLCterminal 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 SLCterminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes.
