Survival of environmental stress conditions requires the maintenance of cellular homeostasis.
To preserve this balance, cells utilize a degradative mechanism known as autophagy.
During this process, in response to starvation or other stresses, bulk cytoplasm is non-specifically sequestered within double-membrane vesicles and delivered to the lysosome/vacuole for subsequent degradation and recycling.
Atg9 is the only integral membrane protein required for autophagosome formation and considered a membrane carrier in autophagy-related pathways.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
