LC3 is a mammalian autophagosome marker. It is immediately cleaved to form LC3-I by Atg4, and when autophagy is induced, phosphatidylethanolamine is covalently linked to LC3-I C-terminal glycine to form LC3-II. LC3-II is membrane-bound and thought to be present in autophagosomal membranes. Since autophagosomes are degraded by fusion with lysosomes, LC3-II itself is also degraded by autophagy. Therefore, it is generally accepted that the amount of LC3-II correlates well with the amount of autophagosomes. This antibody shows good results in ICC and Immunoelectron microscopy experiments.
