| Biochem/physiol Actions: | β-Actin modulates cell growth, migration and the G-actin pool. Mutations in ACTB leads to pleiotropic developmental disorder. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Actins are majorly associated with cell motility. It is ubiquitously present in cytoplasm and involved in a myriad of cellular process including locomotion, secretion, cytoplasmic streaming, phagocytosis, and cytokinesis. It is expressed in mammals and birds and at least six isoforms have been identified. |

| General description: | In staining of chicken gizzard ultrathin tissue cryosections, the antibody labels the dense bodies and longitudinal channels linking consecutive dense bodies that are also occupied by desmin and the membrane-associated dense plaque. It does not stain adult cardiac and skeletal muscles except for traces due to contaminations of the sample with non-muscle cells, or if embryonic tissue is being used. |
| General description: | Monoclonal Anti-b-Actin (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the AC-15 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. ACTB (actin beta) gene codes for β-actin. It is a cytoskeletal housekeeping protein. It is present in the cytoplasm. This gene is located on human chromosome 7p22.1. Actin is a eukaryotic protein. It belongs to the major cytoskeletal protein family. |
