LC3 is a key protein in the autophagy pathway coded by the MAP1LC3B gene. Once synthesized, cytoplasmic LC3 is processed by Atg4 at the C-terminal, forming LC3-I. Upon autophagy signal, LC3-I is conjugated by ubiquitin-like proteins to the lipid PE, generating LC3-II, which is then translocated into autophagosomes. Therefore, the amount of LC3-II in autophagosome directly reflects the autophagy process. LC3B, a mammalian isoform of LC3, is commonly used as an autophagy marker. 

Autophagy is not only a natural cell death process, but related to many pathological processes, including cancer, Parkinson's and other diseases. To assist autophagy studies, ABclonal has developed LC3B rabbit monoclonal antibody [KO validated] (A19665), using single B-cell technology.
