Western blot data generated with our top cited LC3 antibody

WB data generated with Novus top cited LC3 antibody

Western blot: WB analysis lysates from HeLa cells that were left untreated (blank) or were treated with 10-20 uM each of autophagy inducing peptides (Tat-D11, Tat-L11, Tat-Beclin 1) or with 10-20 uM of non-inducing control peptides (Tat-L11S). HeLa lysates were then analyzed for the expression of LC3-1/LC3-II using 2ug/ml of anti-LC3B (NB100-2220). Anti-Actin (AF4000) was used as a loading control. LC3-II expression was induced by all autophagy inducing peptides, but Tat-D11 exhibited superior induction when compared to other treatment and control groups.
