anti-WIPI2 antibody [2A2]

anti-WIPI2 antibody [2A2] for ICC/IF,IHC-Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections,Immunoprecipitation,Western blot and Human,Mouse

Overview

Product Description Mouse Monoclonal antibody [2A2] recognizes WIPI2
This antibody recognizes WD repeat domain phosphoinositide-interacting protein 2 (WIPI-2), also known as WIPI49-like protein 2. WIPI2 is a 454 amino acid ~54kDa autophagosomal marker containing three WD repeats. WIPI2 a mammalian orthologue of the yeast protein Atg18 and is similarly recruited to early autophagosomal structures and is required for their maturation into mature autophagosomes (Polson et al. 2010).Mouse anti Human WIPI2 antibody, clone 2A2 has been used for the immunofluorescent detection of WIPI2 in the human retinal epithelial cell line RPE1 (MacVicar and Lane 2014).

Gene Full Name WD repeat domain, phosphoinositide interacting 2
Function Early component of the autophagy machinery being involved in formation of preautophagosomal structures and their maturation into mature phagosomes in response to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns3P). Recruits the ATG12-ATG5-ATG16L1 complex to omegasomes, resulting in ATG8 family proteins lipidation and starvation-induced autophagy. Omegasomes are derived from ER and serve as intermediates for genesis of isolation membrane (also called preautophagosome) from ER cisternae membranes. [UniProt]
