Background :
LC3, also known as microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (MAP1LC3), is a mammalian homolog of the yeast Atg8p (autophagy-related 8 protein) that is involved in autophagy process. Three isoforms of LC3 exist as LC3A,LC3B, and LC3C. LC3 is first synthesized as pro-LC3, and undergoes C-terminal cleavage to yield a cytosolic precursor known as LC3-I. During autophagy LC3-I is subsequently conjugated to PE lipid as lipidated form: LC3-II. The lipidated form migrates faster on SDS-PAGE gel. The increased the level of LC3-II has been widely used as autophagy marker. This antibody recognizes both LC3-I and LC3-II.

Antibodies are immunoglobulins secreted by effector lymphoid B cells into the bloodstream. Antibodies consist of two light peptide chains and two heavy peptide chains that are linked to each other by disulfide bonds to form a “Y” shaped structure. Both tips of the “Y” structure contain binding sites for a specific antigen. Antibodies are commonly used in medical research, pharmacological research, laboratory research, and health and epidemiological research. They play an important role in hot research areas such as targeted drug development, in vitro diagnostic assays, characterization of signaling pathways, detection of protein expression levels, and identification of candidate biomarkers.
