Technical Data
A0760-04D
ACTC, CT (Actin, Aortic Smooth Muscle, Alpha-actin-2, Cell Growth-inhibiting Gene 46 Protein, GIG46, ACTVS, ACTSA, ACTA2)
Description:
ACTC 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. Defects in this protein cause aortic aneurysm familial thoracic type 6.

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:1,000
Western Blot: 1:50-1:100
