Revvity HTRF Human and Mouse Phospho-ATG14 Ser29 Detection Kit, 500 Assay Points

ATG14, Autophagy related protein 14, or BAKOR for Beclin 1-associated autophagy-related key regulator, is a key player in the autophagosome nucleation step in macroautophagy. Upon cellular stress, the nutrient/energy-sensitive sensors mTOR and AMPK lead to the activation of the ULK1 complex, which allows phosphorylation of ATG14 on Serine 29, in turn enabling the downstream activation of the PIK3C3 autophagosome nucleation complex.
