APG7 Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene was identified based on homology to Pichia pastoris GSA7 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae APG7. In the yeast, the protein appears to be required for fusion of peroxisomal and vacuolar membranes. The protein shows homology to the ATP-binding and catalytic sites of the E1 ubiquitin activating enzymes. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
Uniprot Description
ATG7: Functions as an E1 enzyme essential for multisubstrates such as ATG8-like proteins and ATG12. Forms intermediate conjugates with ATG8-like proteins (GABARAP, GABARAPL1, GABARAPL2 or MAP1LC3A). PE-conjugation to ATG8-like proteins is essential for autophagy. Also acts as an E1 enzyme for ATG12 conjugation to ATG5 and ATG3. Homodimer. Interacts with ATG3 and ATG12. The complex, composed of ATG3 and ATG7, plays a role in the conjugation of ATG12 to ATG5. Widely expressed, especially in kidney, liver, lymph nodes and bone marrow. Belongs to the ATG7 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The ATG7 atg7 (Catalog #AAA151933) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's APG7 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). APG7 peptide is used for blocking the activity of APG7 antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ATG7 atg7 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 "APG7, Blocking 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
