products gene name :
BECN1
other gene names :
BECN1; BECN1; ATG6; VPS30; beclin1; GT197
uniprot entry name :
BECN1_HUMAN
specificity :
Specific for the ~60k beclin1 protein phosphorylated at Ser295. Immunolabeling of the beclin-1 band is eliminated in the beclin-1 alanine substitution mutant.
purity :
Affinity Purified (Prepared from rabbit serum by affinity purification via sequential chromatography on phospho- and dephosphopeptide affinity columns.)
form :
100 ul in 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 ug per ml BSA and 50% glycerol.
storage stability :
For long term storage -80 degree C is recommended, but shorter term storage at -20 degree C is al acceptable as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to the presence of 50% glycerol. Stock solutions are stable for a minimum of 1 year at - 20 degree C.
tested application :
Western Blot (WB)
app notes :
Quality Control: Western blots performed on each lot. WB: 1:250
other info1 :
Antigen: Phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding the phospho-Ser295 of human beclin-1. Immunogen Information: Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser295 conjugated to KLH. Immunogen Species: Human
other info2 :
Reactivity Assumed Based on 100% Sequence Homology: Bovine, canine, chicken, mouse, non-human primate, sheep, Xenopus, zebrafish. Species Reactivity Note: The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in Western blots with recombinant HeLa and 293T cells. It is anticipated that the antibody will react with bovinecanine, chicken, mouse, non-human primate, sheep, Xenopus, and zebra fish tissues based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen. Biological Significance: Beclin-1 plays a key role in tumor suppression and autophagy. It has been suggested that autophagy proteins such as beclin-1 can inhibit tumorigenesis and that decreased expression of these proteins may contribute to the development of human malignancies (Liang et al., 1999). Akt-mediated phosphorylation of beclin-1 at Ser295 has been shown to decrease autophagy and promote oncogenesis (Wang et al., 2012).

uniprot summary :
Function: Plays a central role in autophagy. Required for the abcission step in cytokinesis. May play a role in antiviral host defense. Protects against infection by a neurovirulent strain of Sindbis virus. Ref.13. Subunit structure: Interacts with GOPC and GRID2. Interacts with AMBRA1. Forms a complex with PIK3C3 and PIK3R4 and either UVRAG and KIAA0226/Rubicon, or with ATG14. UVRAG and ATG14 form mutually exclusive complexes through direct competition for BECN1-binding. The complex containing ATG14 up-regulates autophagy, while the one containing Rubicon down-regulates autophagy . By similarity. Interacts with BCL2 and BCL2L1. Interacts with VMP1. Interacts with PIK3CB . By similarity. Interacts with DAPK1. Interacts with human cytomegalovirus/HHV-5 protein TRS1. Ref.1 Ref.6 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.12 Ref.14 Ref.16. Subcellular location: Golgi apparatus trans-Golgi network membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note: Interaction with ATG14 promotes translocation to autophagosomes. Expressed in dendrites and cell bodies of cerebellar Purkinje cells . By similarity. Ref.9. Tissue specificity: Ubiquitous. Post-translational modification: Phosphorylation at Thr-119 by DAPK1 reduces its interaction with BCL2 and BCL2L1 and promotes induction of autophagy.polyubiquitinated by NEDD4, both with 'Lys11'- and 'Lys63'-linkages. 'Lys'-11-linked poyubiquitination leads to degradation and is enhanced when the stabilizing interaction partner VPS34 is depleted. Deubiquitinated by USP10 and USP13, leading to stabilize the PIK3C3/VPS34-containing complexes. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the beclin family.
