Research Abstract |
We produced Keima, a novel autophagy probe. Because the signal of Keima remains and accumulates after termination of autophagy, this probe has high sensitivity and can determines total amount of autophagy. While this probe can detect not only macroautophagy, but also other autophagy. mt-mKeima, a mitochondria targeting construct, can detect mitophagy. This probe has been distributed and used in some dozen laboratory.
