Beclin-1 Peptide | BECN1 peptide
Beclin-1 (Beclin 1 (Coiled-coil Moesin-like BCL2-interacting Protein), Beclin1, BECN1, APG6, ATG6, ATG6 Autophagy-related 6 Homolog, Coiled-coil Myosin-like Bcl-2-Interacting Protein, GT197, Protein GT197, VPS30)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Beclin-1 participates in the regulation of autophagy and has an important role in development, tumorigenesis, and neurodegeneration (Zhong et al., 2009 [PubMed 19270693]).[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2010]
Uniprot Description
Function: Plays a central role in autophagy. Required for the abcission step in cytokinesis. May play a role in antiviral host defense. Protects against infection by a neurovirulent strain of Sindbis virus. Ref.12
Subunit structure: Interacts with GOPC and GRID2. Interacts with AMBRA1. Forms a complex with PIK3C3 and PIK3R4 and either UVRAG and KIAA0226/Rubicon, or with ATG14. UVRAG and ATG14 form mutually exclusive complexes through direct competition for BECN1-binding. The complex containing ATG14 up-regulates autophagy, while the one containing Rubicon down-regulates autophagy
By similarity. Interacts with BCL2 and BCL2L1. Interacts with VMP1. Interacts with PIK3CB
By similarity. Interacts with DAPK1. Interacts with human cytomegalovirus/HHV-5 protein TRS1. Ref.1 Ref.5 Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.11 Ref.13 Ref.14
Subcellular location: Golgi apparatus › trans-Golgi network membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note: Interaction with ATG14 promotes translocation to autophagosomes. Expressed in dendrites and cell bodies of cerebellar Purkinje cells
By similarity. Ref.8
Tissue specificity: Ubiquitous.
Post-translational modification: Phosphorylation at Thr-119 by DAPK1 reduces its interaction with BCL2 and BCL2L1 and promotes induction of autophagy.Ubiquitinated. Deubiquitinated by USP10 and USP13, leading to stabilize the PIK3C3/VPS34-containing complexes. Ref.13
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the beclin family.

Product Notes
The BECN1 becn1 (Catalog #AAA658875) is a Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Beclin-1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA). Suitable for use in ELISA as a blocking peptide. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the BECN1 becn1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Beclin-1, Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
