Background of Beclin 1

Beclin-1, also known as also known as ATG6 or VPS30 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BECN1 gene. Beclin-1 and its binding partner class III phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), also named Vps34, are required for the initiation of the formation of the autophagosome in autophagy. This gene participates in the regulation of autophagy and has an important role in development, tumorigenesis, and neurodegeneration. Schizophrenia is associated with low levels of Beclin-1 in the hippocampus of the affected which causes diminished autophagywhich in turn results in increased neuronal cell death. It has been found that beclin-1 can promote autophagy in autophagy-defective yeast with a targeted disruption of apg6/vps30, and in human MCF7 breast carcinoma cells.

Question

We have observed staining in mouse cervix. Any tips? Is anti-Beclin 1/BECN1 antibody supposed to stain cervix positively?

Verified Customer

Asked: 2020-01-16

Answer

From what I have seen in literature cervix does express BECN1. From what I have seen in Uniprot.org, BECN1 is expressed in frontal cortex, brain, liver, cervix, mammary gland, cervix carcinoma, erythroleukemia, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have BECN1 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Brain, Pubmed ID: 9765397, 10395800
Cervix, Pubmed ID: 15489334
Cervix carcinoma, Pubmed ID: 18691976

Question

Can you help my question with product PB9076, anti-Beclin 1/BECN1 antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-12-20

Answer

We do not advise storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free PB9076 anti-Beclin 1/BECN1 antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.

Question

Does PB9076 anti-Beclin 1/BECN1 antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?

Verified Customer

Verified customer

Asked: 2018-03-23

Answer

As indicated on the product datasheet, PB9076 anti-Beclin 1/BECN1 antibody as been validated on WB. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.
