Abstract
Protocol for an in vitro LC3 lipidation assay using purified proteins and synthetic liposomes.
Materials
ATG3, ATG7, WIPI2, ATG12–5-16L1-GFP, LC3B
400nm extruded liposomes (70% DOPC, 20% DOPE, 5% DOPS, 5% PI(3)P)
Reaction buffer:20mM Tris pH8.0, 150mM NaCl, 1mM MgCl2, 1mM TCEP,1mM ATP
Mix 2μM ATG3, 2μM ATG7, 1μM WIPI2, 200nM ATG12–ATG5-ATG16L1-GFP, 5μM LC3B
1:1 with extruded liposomes in reaction buffer.
Incubate at 37 ̊C
At 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes, remove 12μl of reaction mixture andquench by
adding 4ul of SDS-PAGE loading bufferandheatingat 60 ̊C for 10 minutes.
