Background Information
ATG5, also named as APG5L and ASP, belongs to the ATG5 family. It is required for autophagy. It plays an important role in the apoptotic process, possibly within the modified cytoskeleton. Its expression is a relatively late event in the apoptotic process, occurring downstream of caspase activity. Autophagy is a catabolic process for the autophagosomic-lysosomal degradation of bulk cytoplasmic contents. Formation of the autophagosome involves a ubiquitin-like conjugation system in which Atg12 is covalently bound to Atg5 and targeted to autophagosome vesicles. It mediates autophagosome-independent host protection. This antibody is raised against 28-275 amino acids of human ATG5. It can recognize the ATG5-ATG12 complex (55 kDa) which can be truncated and generate a 40-45 kDa band. 10181-2-AP also recognizes the free ATG5 (32 kDa).

Reviews
What customers say
All six reviews are highly positive, with five five-star and one four-star rating. The antibody performs reliably in Western Blot across human and mouse samples, including Caco2 cells, mouse liver, and colon tissue, producing clear Atg5 (33 kDa) and Atg5-12 complex (56 kDa) bands. One reviewer also confirmed successful use in immunofluorescence with siRNA validation. Recommended dilutions range from 1:1000 to 1:2000, and TBST or 3% milk TBS-T blocking conditions work well. Overall, users report consistent, high-quality results with no notable issues.
