Multiple isoforms of GABARAP exist due to alternative splicing events.
Purification
GABARAP Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
GABARAP antibody was raised against a 19 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human GABARAP. The immunogen is located within the first 50 amino acids of GABARAP.
GABARAP antibody can be used for detection of GABARAP by Western blot at 1 - 2 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 5 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples, Immunohistochemistry in mouse samples and Immunofluorescence in human and mouse samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

Background
GABARAP Antibody: Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory transmitter by increasing a Cl-conductance that inhibits neuronal firing in the central nervous system. It has been shown to activate both ionotropic (GABAA) and metabotropic (GABAB) receptors as well as a third class of receptors called GABAC. GABARAP (GABAA receptor-associated protein) links GABAA receptors to the cytoskeleton and may play a role in intracellular transport of GABAA receptors and its interaction with the cytoskeleton. GABARAP belongs to the MAP1 or ATG8 like family and recent studies show that MAPK15/ERK8 is acting through interaction with ATG8 family proteins to regulate autophagy.
