LC3 Antibody Details:
Immunogen: A synthetic peptide made to an N-terminal portion of the human LC3 protein sequence (between residues 1-100). Localization: LC3-I is cytoplasmic. LC3-II binds to the autophagic membranes. Marker: Autophagosomes Marker
This antibody reacts with human, rat and mouse LC3 protein, though the mouse detection is weaker than the human. No other species have been tested. The immunogen used for this antibody production has 100% homology with rat and Zebrafish, 92% with mouse, 91% with cow, and 84% with Xenopus proteins.
Uses: By Western blot bands are seen at ~17 and 19 kDa corresponding to LC3-II and LC3-I. In some cases a non-specific band is seen at ~21 kDa in mouse protein. Please note general reference (1) below for ATG5 control lysates used in our image.

Background:
LC3, a mammalian homologue of Apg8, was originally identified as microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3. It is a component of both the MAP1A and MAP1B microtubule-binding domains and the heavy-chain independent regulation of LC3 expression might modify MAP1 microtubule-binding activity during development. However, LC3 is now thought to also be involved in autophagy. LC3-I is cytosolic and LC3-II is membrane bound and enriched in the autophagic vacuole fraction. LC3-II is the first mammalian protein identified that specifically associates with the autophagosome membranes.

This particular antibody worked beautifully for WB, with one minor caveat. After repeated usage, the binding of the antibody to LC3-I seems to drop off significantly vs. LC3-II, making quantification of LC3 levels in reference to each isoform significantly more challenging, and borderline impossible due to these fluctuations
