pMRX-IP-GFP-LC3-RFP (#RDB14601)

Fluorescent probe to evaluate autophagic flux by the rat LC3 fused with GFP and RFP.

Clone info. Fluorescent probe to evaluate autophagic flux. Expression vector of rat microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta (LC3) fused with GFP and RFP. This probe is cleaved by endogenous ATG4 proteases into equimolar amounts of GFP-LC3 and RFP. The GFP-LC3 is degraded by autophagy, while RFP remains in the cytosol as an internal control. Thus, autophagic flux can be estimated by calculating the GFP/RFP signal ratio. Please refer DISCUSSION section of Kaizuka, T., Mol. Cell 64, 835-849, 2016 for the difference between pMRX-IP-GFP-LC3-RFP-LC3deltaG and this clone.
Comment Expression was confirmed by the depositor with immunoblotting and fluorescent microscopy. Please refer Saitoh, T. et al., FEBS Lett., 532 (1-2): 45-51, (2002) for the construction of pMRX-IP vector.
