{"product_id":"nsj-r30945-100ug","title":"Beclin 1 Antibody, 100 ug","description":"\u003cp\u003eBellini-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BECN1 gene, also known as BECN1, ATG6, VPS30, Coiled-coil myosin-like BCL2-interacting protein, Protein GT197, autophagy-related gene 6 (ATG6). 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. The gene encodes a novel 450-amino acid protein containing a coiled-coil region, within which it has limited homology to myosin-like proteins. Northern blot analysis of mouse and adult human tissues revealed widespread expression. A 2.2-kb transcript was present at highest levels in human skeletal muscle and at detectable levels in all tissues examined. In some tissues, additional 1.7- and 1.4-kb transcripts were observed, suggesting the presence of alternatively spliced transcripts. Immunoperoxidase staining of human hippocampus and frontal cortex sections revealed Beclin 1 immunoreactivity in many neurons throughout these regions, as well as in some glial cells. It protects against infection by a neurovirulent strain of Sindbis virus that is known to overcome the protective effects of Bcl2. Liang et al. showed that Beclin 1 reduced Sindbis virus replication in mouse brain and reduced Sindbis virus-induced cell death in mouse brain.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"100 ug","offer_id":51550488887576,"sku":"R30945","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/5652\/1400\/files\/get_image_1d36a657-32d3-4f73-bdab-19e483b61b15.jpg?v=1768315393","url":"https:\/\/danabiosci.com\/products\/nsj-r30945-100ug","provider":"Dana Bioscience","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
