Anti-Atg1/ULK1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting and immunohistochemical staining.
Atg1 is an autophagy protein that functions as a serine/threonine kinase in yeast to regulate autophagasome formation. Atg1 is ULK1 in mammals.
Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 (ULK1) regulates autophagy initiation and innate immunity of interferons (IFNs). ULK1 is critical for neuronal development. It is essential for neurite elongation and differentiation of cerebellar granule neurons. Mutations in this gene is linked to latent mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (LTBI).
