Autophagy is the process by which endogenous proteins and damaged organelles are destroyed intracellularly. Autophagy is postulated to be essential for cell homeostasis and cell remodeling during differentiation, metamorphosis, non-apoptotic cell death, and aging. Reduced levels of autophagy have been described in some malignant tumors, and a role for autophagy in controlling the unregulated cell growth linked to cancer has been proposed. ATG4D（autophagy related 4D cysteine peptidase） belongs to the autophagy-related protein 4 (Atg4) family of C54 endopeptidases. Members of this family encode proteins that play a role in the biogenesis of autophagosomes, which sequester the cytosol and organelles for degradation by lysosomes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.蛋白别名为：ATG4D; APG4D; AUTL4; Cysteine protease ATG4D; AUT-like 4 cysteine endopeptidase; Autophagin-4; Autophagy-related cysteine endopeptidase 4; Autophagy-related protein 4 homolog D;基因ID为：84971；蛋白质ID:Q86TL0
应用类型
WB，IHC-p，ELISA补充：最优的抗体稀释比例需要基于客户实验进行优化.建议的起始稀释比例如下: WB: 1:500-1:2000, IHC-p: 1:100-1:300, ELISA: 1:5000. Not yet tested in other applications.
