Background

Actin makes up the most abundant protein in many eukaryotic cell types. It polymerizes to form microfilaments that have an array of functions, including regulating contractility, motility, cytokinesis, phagocytosis, adhesion, cell morphology, and providing structural support. At least six types of Actin, falling into three categories, exist in higher eukaryotes. The three types, separated based on isoelectric point, include alpha ( alpha -Skeletal, alpha -Cardiac, alpha -Smooth Muscle), beta ( beta -Non-muscle) and gamma
( gamma -Smooth Muscle, gamma -non-muscle) isoforms.  Non-muscle beta - and gamma -actin are also known as cytoplasmic actin.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.

FAQs for beta-Actin Antibody (MAB8929). (Showing 1 - 6 of 6 FAQs).

  1. Why is beta actin used as a loading control in blotting ?
    • Beta actin is a highly-expressed protein found in all cells, and is considered a house keeping protein whose expression is necessary for any cell's proper functioning. For this reason it is used as a loading control to confirm that the same amount of total protein is loaded in each lane of an SDS-PAGE gel so that appropriate comparisons can be made between the actual proteins of interest in different samples.
  2. Are the beta-Actin antibodies validated in Simple Western?
    • Yes, we offer a few beta actin antibodies that have been tested in Simple Western: NBP1-47423, NB600-501, NB600-532, NB600-503, and NB100-56874.
  3. Do Beta-Actin antibodies come in lyophilized format?
    • ACTB antibodies like MAB8969 AND MAB8929 come in lyophilized form.
  4. What is the theoretical molecular weight for Beta-Actin antibodies?
    • The TMW for beta Actin antibodies is approximately 42 kDa.
  5. I wanted to know which of the two housekeeping genes B-actin or GAPDH can be used for best results. I intend to do an experiment to determine expression of IL-6 and TNF-alpha in liver and kidney tissues.
    • For homogenized tissue, beta-actin and GAPDH are both fine.
  6. Does this Beta-Actin antibody come in lyophilized form?
    • Yes, we carry this beta-actin antibody in lyophilized format.
