Western blot - Anti-ATG12 antibody (AB155589)
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-ATG12 antibody staining at 1/500 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] (ab7291) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab155589 was shown to bind specifically to ATG12. A band likely to be the unfunctional complex with ATG5 was observed at 52 kDa in wild-type THP-1 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in Atg12 knockout cell line ab277831 (knockout cell lysate ab278183) - unconjugated functional form not observed at 15 kD. To generate this image, wild-type and Atg12 knockout THP-1 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3% milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

Biological function summary
ATG12 is vital for the formation of autophagosomes which are double-membraned vesicles that sequester cellular components for degradation. It functions as part of a complex by binding to ATG5 and further associates with ATG16L1 to form a larger ATG12-ATG5-ATG16 complex. This complex localizes to the outer membrane of the growing autophagosome facilitating elongation and closure of the vesicle making it effective in the regulation of autophagy.
Pathways
ATG12's interaction with other proteins like ATG5 places it in the macroautophagy pathway an important process maintaining cellular homeostasis and turnover of cellular components. In addition to this ATG12 also contributes to cellular responses to stress conditions via this pathway. Furthermore it has connections with signaling pathways involving proteins such as LC3 which marks autophagosomal membranes and interacts with ATG12-conjugated complexes enhancing the autophagic flux.
