Product Overview

Description	Recombinant Human Ubiquitin-like-conjugating Enzyme ATG3/ATG3 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Met314 is expressed.
Accession	Q9NT62
Synonym	Ubiquitin-like-conjugating enzyme ATG3; Autophagy-related protein 3; APG3-like; hApg3; Protein PC3-96; ATG3; APG3; APG3L
Gene Background	Ubiquitin-like-conjugating enzyme ATG3 (ATG3), also known as Apg3L and Apg3p, functions as a regulatory component of autophagosome biogenesis necessary for autophagy. ATG3 exhibits 98% aa sequence identity with both its mouse and rat orthologs. It is widely expressed and has highly levels in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver and placenta. As an E2-like enzyme, involves in autophagy and mitochondrial homeostasis. ATG3 catalyzes the conjugation of ATG8-like proteins to PE which is essential for autophagy. ATG3 also can catalyze the conjugation of ATG12 to itself which palys a role in mitochondrial homeostasis but not in autophagy.

Target Details

Target Function	E2 conjugating enzyme required for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt), autophagy, and mitochondrial homeostasis. Responsible for the E2-like covalent binding of phosphatidylethanolamine to the C-terminal Gly of ATG8-like proteins (GABARAP, GABARAPL1, GABARAPL2 or MAP1LC3A). The ATG12-ATG5 conjugate plays a role of an E3 and promotes the transfer of ATG8-like proteins from ATG3 to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). This step is required for the membrane association of ATG8-like proteins. The formation of the ATG8-phosphatidylethanolamine conjugates is essential for autophagy and for the cytoplasm to vacuole transport (Cvt). Preferred substrate is MAP1LC3A. Also acts as an autocatalytic E2-like enzyme, catalyzing the conjugation of ATG12 to itself, ATG12 conjugation to ATG3 playing a role in mitochondrial homeostasis but not in autophagy. ATG7 (E1-like enzyme) facilitates this reaction by forming an E1-E2 complex with ATG3. Promotes primary ciliogenesis by removing OFD1 from centriolar satellites via the autophagic pathway.
Subcellular Location	Cytoplasm.
Protein Families	ATG3 family

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
