Target description
Actin, cytoplasmic 1 (UniProt: P60709; also known as beta-Actin) is encoded by the ACTB gene (Gene ID: 60) in human. Actins are ubiquitous eukaryotic proteins that serve as multi-functional, basic building blocks of cytoskeletal microfilaments. They play critical roles in a wide range of cellular processes, including cell division, cell migration, chromatin remodeling, transcriptional regulation, and vesicle trafficking. These functions are attributed to their ability to form filaments, which can quickly assemble and disassemble depending upon the needs of the cell. At least six different actin types have been reported in mammals. Although actins show about 90% overall sequence homology, isoforms do show spatial, temporal, and tissue-specific expression patterns and only 50-60% homology is found in their 18 N-terminal residues. Beta- and gamma-actins are the major structural components of the actin cytoskeleton in non-muscle cells. Beta-actin plays a predominant role in cell migration and its enrichment has also been observed at the leading edge of migrating cells, whereas gamma-actin appears to be more uniformly distributed throughout the cell. In addition, beta-actin can also undergo N-terminal arginylation that regulates lamella formation in motile cells. Beta-actin has also been consistently utilized as a loading control in Western blotting applications due to the fact that its expression is fairly consistent, although its levels can somewhat differ in different tissues and its expression can be affected by certain pathological conditions. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
Physical form
