Specificity: If you are looking for a specific domain and are interested in a partial protein or a different isoform, please contact us regarding an individual offer.

Characteristics: Key Benefits:

• Predefined custom protein - from design to production - by highly experienced protein experts.
• Protein expressed in mammalian cells and purified in one-step affinity chromatography
• The optimized expression system ensures reliability for intracellular, secreted and transmembrane proteins.
• State-of-the-art algorithm used for plasmid design (Gene synthesis).

This protein is a predefined protein and will be made for the first time for your order. Our experts in the lab try to ensure that you receive soluble protein.

If you are not interested in a full length protein, please contact us for individual protein fragments.

The big advantage of ordering our predefined custom proteins in comparison to ordering custom-made proteins from other companies is that there is no financial obligation in case the protein cannot be expressed or purified.

Target Details

Target: WIPI2 (WD Repeat Domain, Phosphoinositide Interacting 2 (WIPI2))

Alternative Name: WIPI2

Background: WD repeat domain phosphoinositide-interacting protein 2 (WIPI-2) (WIPI49-like protein 2),FUNCTION: Component of the autophagy machinery that controls the major intracellular degradation process by which cytoplasmic materials are packaged into autophagosomes and delivered to lysosomes for degradation (PubMed:20505359, PubMed:28561066). Involved in an early step of the formation of preautophagosomal structures (PubMed:20505359, PubMed:28561066). Binds and is activated by phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns3P) forming on membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum upon activation of the upstream ULK1 and PI3 kinases (PubMed:28561066). Mediates ER-isolation membranes contacts by interacting with the ULK1:RB1CC1 complex and PtdIns3P (PubMed:28890335). Once activated, WIPI2 recruits at phagophore assembly sites the ATG12-ATG5-ATG16L1 complex that directly controls the elongation of the nascent autophagosomal membrane (PubMed:20505359, PubMed:28561066). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20505359, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28561066, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28890335, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30968111}., FUNCTION: [Isoform 4]: Recruits the ATG12-ATG5-ATG16L1 complex to omegasomes and preautophagosomal structures, resulting in ATG8 family proteins lipidation and starvation-induced autophagy. Isoform 4 is also required for autophagic clearance of pathogenic bacteria. Isoform 4 binds the membrane surrounding Salmonella and recruits the ATG12-5-16L1 complex, initiating LC3 conjugation, autophagosomal membrane formation, and engulfment of Salmonella. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24954904}.
