Applicable Applications for anti-Actin (N-terminal Region) antibody
WB (Western Blot), ELISA
Immunogen
Actin synthetic peptide (coupled to KLH) corresponding to amino acid residues in the N-terminal region of human b actin. This sequence is identical to similar regions in all four a actins, as well as in g actin, and is well conserved in actins from most eukaryotic species.
Preparation and Storage
Store at -20 degree C. Do not aliquot. Stable for 1 year.
Related Product Information for anti-Actin (N-terminal Region) antibody
Actin is a major cytoskeletal protein involved in diverse cellular functions including cell motility, adhesion, and morphology. Six different actin isoforms have been identified in vertebrates. There are four a isoforms: skeletal, cardiac, and two smooth muscle (enteric and aortic) actins, along with two cytoplasmic actins (b and g). Actin exists in two principal forms, globular, monomeric (G) actin, and filamentous polymeric (F) actin. The assembly and disassembly of actin filaments, and also their organization into functional networks, is regulated by a variety of actin-binding proteins (ABPs). Phosphorylation may also be important for regulating actin assembly and interaction with ABPs. In Dictyostelium, phosphorylation of Tyr-53 occurs in response to cell stress and this phosphorylation may alter actin polymerization. In B cells, SHP-1 tyrosine dephosphorylation of actin leads to actin filament depolymerization following BCR stimulation.
