Application
Fluorescent image of U251 cells stained with ATG4B (C-term) antibody. U251 cells were treated with Chloroquine (50 μM,16h), then fixed with 4% PFA (20 min), permeabilized with Triton X-100 (0.2%, 30 min). Cells were then incubated with AP1809c ATG4B (C-term) primary antibody (1:100, 2 h at room temperature). For secondary antibody, Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated donkey anti-rabbit antibody (green) was used (1:1000, 1h). Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst 33342 (blue) (10 μg/ml, 5 min). ATG4B immunoreactivity is localized to autophagic vacuoles in the cytoplasm of U251 cells.Application
Western blot analysis of anti-hAPG4B-373 Pab in 293 cell line lysates transiently transfected with the ATG4B gene (2ug/lane). hAPG4B-373(arrow) was detected using the purified Pab (1:60 dilution).Application
Western blot analysis of anti-APG4B Pab in Hela cell lysate. APG4B (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.Application
Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.

| Molecular Weight(MW) | 44294 Da |
| Function | Cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the C-terminal part of MAP1LC3, GABARAPL1, GABARAPL2 and 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 C-terminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes. Also mediates the lipid deconjugation required for target recycling |
| Tissue Specificity | Mainly expressed in the skeletal muscle, followed by brain, heart, liver and pancreas |
| Cellular Localization | Cytoplasm (Probable). |
| Entrez Gene | 23192 |
