GABARAP (gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor-associated protein) serves as a critical mediator in autophagy and intracellular trafficking, functioning as an ATG8 family member that facilitates autophagosome-lysosome fusion and GABA(A) receptor clustering at synaptic membranes. Its dual roles in neuronal signaling and cellular quality control mechanisms make GABARAP a valuable target for researchers investigating neurodegenerative diseases, cancer biology, and autophagy-related pathways.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated from clone 3C1 in rabbit host, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Because recombinant antibodies are produced from defined sequences rather than traditional hybridoma methods, researchers benefit from lot-to-lot uniformity that supports longitudinal studies and ensures comparable results across experiments.
Validation across multiple platforms demonstrates this antibody's versatility in diverse experimental contexts. Western blot analysis confirms reliable detection in human cell lines including U-251MG, SH-SY5Y, THP-1, HEK293, MCF-7, PC-3, and A375, with cross-species reactivity validated in mouse and rat brain tissue lysates. The observed band at approximately 17 kDa, slightly higher than the predicted 14 kDa molecular weight, likely reflects post-translational modifications such as lipidation that occur during GABARAP's conjugation to autophagosomal membranes. Immunohistochemistry validation in human ovarian cancer tissue and flow cytometry analysis in PC-3 cells further expand the application range, providing researchers flexibility to examine GABARAP expression from tissue architecture to single-cell resolution.
Whether investigating autophagy flux, neurotransmitter receptor trafficking, or tumor biology, this antibody supports research spanning neuroscience, oncology, and cell biology applications where precise GABARAP detection is essential.
