Description
VTI1b Antibody | 8289 | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution
Host: Rabbit
Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat
Homology: Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Bovine: (100%)
Immunogen: VTI1b antibody was raised against a 17 amino acid peptide near the center of human VTI1b.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 150 - 200 of VTI1b.
Research Area: Autophagy
Tested Application: E, WB, IHC-P
Application: VTI1b antibody can be used for detection of VTI1b by Western blot at 1 - 2 μg/ml. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 5 μg/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples and Immunohistochemistry in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.
Specificiy: VTI1b antibody is human, mouse and rat reactive. At least three isoforms of VTI1a are known to exist; this antibody will detect all three isoforms. VTI1b antibody is predicted to not cross-react with VTI1a.

User Note: Optimal dilutions for each application to be determined by the researcher.
BACKGROUND: Vesicle transport through interaction with t-SNAREs homolog 1 (VTI1a and VTI1b) are involved in vesicular transport from the late endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (1) . They are both localized in the trans-Golgi network, with VTI1a also found in the Golgi apparatus and VTI1b in endosomes (2, 3) . It is thought that VTI1b along with the SNARE protein VAMP8 mediates the fusion of antimicrobial and canonical autophagosomes with lysosomes, an essential process for autophagy (4) .
