MAP1LC3B Monoclonal Antibody

The product of this gene is a subunit of neuronal microtubule-associated MAP1A and MAP1B proteins, which are involved in microtubule assembly and important for neurogenesis. Studies on the rat homolog implicate a role for this gene in autophagy, a process that involves the bulk degradation of cytoplasmic component. MAP1LC3B (Microtubule Associated Protein 1 Light Chain 3 Beta) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with MAP1LC3B include Sporadic Pheochromocytoma and Lacrimal Gland Adenocarcinoma. Among its related pathways are Vesicle-mediated transport and Senescence and Autophagy in Cancer. GO annotations related to this gene include microtubule binding. An important paralog of this gene is MAP1LC3B2.
