Biological Significance
Actin is a muscle protein localized in the I band of the myofibrils; acting along with myosin, it is responsible for contraction and relaxation of muscle. It occurs in globular (G-actin) and fibrous (F-actin) forms.
Cross-Reactivity
Caprine, Human, Rabbit, Rat, Pig
Immunogen
alpha Actin antibody (smooth muscle) was raised in Mouse using a peptide comprising the N-terminal nonapeptide of alpha-skeletal actin with an acetylated N-terminus (Ac-DEDETTALVC-COOH) coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin through the cysteine residue as the immunogen.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 4°C for short term
For long term Storage , store at -20°C.
Avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

NCBI Description

The product encoded by this gene belongs to the actin family of proteins, which are highly conserved proteins that play a role in cell motility, structure and integrity. Alpha, beta and gamma actin isoforms have been identified, with alpha actins being a major constituent of the contractile apparatus, while beta and gamma actins are involved in the regulation of cell motility. This actin is an alpha actin that is found in skeletal muscle. Mutations in this gene cause nemaline myopathy type 3, congenital myopathy with excess of thin myofilaments, congenital myopathy with cores, and congenital myopathy with fiber-type disproportion, diseases that lead to muscle fiber defects.

Uniprot Description

ACTA1: Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells. Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin) in the form of a two-stranded helix. Each actin can bind to 4 others. Interacts with TTID. Interacts (via its C-terminus) with USP25; the interaction occurs for all USP25 isoforms but is strongest for isoform USP25m in muscle differentiating cells. Belongs to the actin family.

Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Contractile; Cell development/differentiation; Cytoskeletal

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q42.13

Cellular Component: extracellular space; sarcomere; stress fiber; actin filament; cytosol; striated muscle thin filament; actin cytoskeleton

Product Notes

The ACTA1 acta1 (Catalog #AAA832171) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's alpha Actin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Frozen/Paraffin, Western Blot (WB). WB: 1:1000-1:5000; IHC-Fr/P: 1:100-1:1000 Optimal dilutions should be determined by titration. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ACTA1 acta1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "alpha Actin, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
