Extra Details:
Autophagy, the process of bulk degradation of cellular proteins through an autophagosomic- lysosomal pathway is important for normal growth control and may be defective in tumor cells (1,2). Beclin 2 is a mammalian specific homolog of the autophagy protein Beclin 1 (3). Like Beclin 1, Beclin 2 interacts with Bcl-2 and class III PI3K complex components. However, Beclin 2 functions in an additional lysosomal degradation pathway and is required for ligand-induced endolysosomal degradation of several G protein-coupled receptors (3). Beclin 2 is also required for agonist-induced lysosome-mediated degradation of EGFR in lung cancer cells, suggesting that it may also play a role in regulating other intracellular signaling pathways (4). Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Immunofluorescence: 20ug/ml Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 5ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Positive Control: Jurkat Cell Lysate Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
