Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-LC3B antibody [EPR21234] - BSA and Azide free (AB326581)
This data was developed using ab232940, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.
ab232940 staining LC3B in HAP1 cells (wildtype and MAP1LC3B knockout) +/- Chloroquine (50μM, 24 hours). The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab232940 at 0.1μg/ml and ab195889 then detected with an Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (ab150081) at a 1/1000 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue), and ab195889, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 594), at a 1/250 dilution (shown in red).

Biological function summary
LC3B contributes significantly to the formation and maturation of autophagosomes. LC3B part of the autophagy-related protein complex binds to autophagic membranes. During this process LC3-I converts to LC3-II a lipid-phosphatidylethanolamine conjugate essential for autophagosome membrane expansion and closure. This mechanism helps remove damaged organelles and misfolded proteins from cells therefore contributing to cellular quality control.
Pathways
LC3B integrates into the autophagy pathway which is critical for cellular adaptive responses to stress. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway regulates autophagy where mTOR inhibition activates LC3B promoting autophagosome formation. Moreover LC3B operates alongside other proteins like Beclin-1 and ULK1 facilitating the initiation and progression of autophagy under nutrient starvation conditions. These interactions highlight LC3's role in cellular energy balance and survival mechanisms.
