Application Note | This affinity purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and by western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 56.6 kDa in size corresponding to human ATG13 protein by western blotting in the appropriate stimulated tissue or cell lysate or extract. |
Physical State | Liquid (sterile filtered) |
Buffer | 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2 |
Immunogen | This affinity purified antibody was prepared by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the S318 region of ATG13. |
Preservative | 0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide |
Gene ID | 9776 |

Other Names | 9776 |
Purity | This affinity-purified antibody is directed against human ATG13 protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with ATG13 from human based on 100% sequence homology with the immunogen. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known. |
Storage Condition | Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
Name | ATG13 |
---|---|
Synonyms | KIAA0652 |
Function | Autophagy factor required for autophagosome formation and mitophagy. Target of the TOR kinase signaling pathway that regulates autophagy through the control of the phosphorylation status of ATG13 and ULK1, and the regulation of the ATG13-ULK1-RB1CC1 complex. Through its regulation of ULK1 activity, plays a role in the regulation of the kinase activity of mTORC1 and cell proliferation. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytosol. Preautophagosomal structure. Note=Under starvation conditions, is localized to puncate structures primarily representing the isolation membrane; the isolation membrane sequesters a portion of the cytoplasm resulting in autophagosome formation |

Background
ATG13 is a target of the TOR kinase signaling pathway that regulates autophagy through the control of the phosphorylation status of ATG13 and ULK1 through their stable complex, and the regulation of ATG13-ULK1-RB1CC1. ATG13 also forms a stable complex with FIP200. Ulk1 phosphorylates ATG13 on S318 and promotes its release to damaged mitochondria. Autophagy is a normal process in eukaryotes required for turnover of cellular components during starvation and stress. It plays an essential role in cellular differentiation, cell death and aging. Defects in this evolutionarily conserved process may contribute to certain human diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, muscular disorders and pathogen infections. ATG13 is one of several ATG genes required for autophagosome formation in mammalian cells. mTOR interacts with this complex in a nutrient dependent manner and phosphorylates Atg13 and ULK1.
