Actin, Pan Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

Actin and myosin are the two major cytoskeleton proteins implicated in cellular movement, secretion, phagocytosis, and kinesis. Actin is one of the most conserved cellular protein. At least 6 actin isoforms have been identified by protein sequence analyses. Four actin isoforms represent the differentiation markers of muscle tissues. There are three a-actins: a-skeletal, a-cardiac, and a-smooth muscle), one b-actin (b-non-muscle), and two g-actins (g-smooth muscle and g-non-muscle). Actin isoform are ~90% conserved, except in the N-terminal 18aa (50-60%homology). Beta-actin protein and mRNA levels are often used as a reference for comparing changes in cellular protein/mRNA levels by Western or Northern blots.

Small volumes of anti-Actin, pan antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS633223 is an antibody targeting Actin, pan. Also known as Anti-Actin, pan (alpha, beta, gamma) (Cy3). Reactive in Human. Host: Mouse.
