NCBI Description

Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a muscle-specific, alpha actinin isoform that is expressed in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Uniprot Description

ACTN2: F-actin cross-linking protein which is thought to anchor actin to a variety of intracellular structures. This is a bundling protein. Defects in ACTN2 are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1AA (CMD1AA). Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Patients are at risk of premature death. Belongs to the alpha-actinin family.

Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Cytoskeletal

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q42-q43

Cellular Component: cortical actin cytoskeleton; cytoskeleton; focal adhesion; dendritic spine; extracellular region; actin filament; pseudopodium; Z disc; cytosol; filopodium

Molecular Function: integrin binding; actin filament binding; protein dimerization activity; identical protein binding; protein binding; LIM domain binding; structural constituent of muscle; cytoskeletal protein binding; titin binding; calcium ion binding; FATZ binding; thyroid hormone receptor coactivator activity

Biological Process: focal adhesion formation; regulation of apoptosis; platelet activation; synaptic transmission; regulation of membrane potential; platelet degranulation; negative regulation of potassium ion transport; microspike biogenesis; positive regulation of potassium ion transport; cell adhesion; blood coagulation; protein homotetramerization; muscle filament sliding

Disease: Cardiomyopathy, Dilated, 1aa

Product Notes

The ACTN2 actn2 (Catalog #AAA9406192) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Actin alpha-2/3 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Actin alpha-2/3 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF). Western blotting: 1:500~1:3000 Immunohistochemistry: 1:50~1:100 Immunofluorescence: 1:100~1:500. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ACTN2 actn2 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 "Actin alpha-2/3, Polyclonal 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.
