Purified recombinant Human ATG4B protein (His tag) Background: ATG4B is a cysteine protease required for autophagy, which cleaves the C-terminal part of either MAP1LC3, GABARAPL2 or GABARAP, allowing the liberation of form I. A subpopulation of form I is subsequently converted to a smaller form (form II). Form II, with a revealed C-terminal glycine, is considered to be the phosphatidylethanola
mine (PE)-conjugated form, and has the capacity for the binding to autophagosomes. Recombinant human ATG4B protein, fused to His-tag at C-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
