Additional info: Actin is a highly conserved ubiquitous globular protein (G-actin) that polymerizes to form fibrous F-actin microfilaments. In higher eucaryotes several actin isoforms have been identified, that fall into three classes. Alpha actin is a structural component of the contractile apparatus of muscle cells or muscle-derived cells. Beta actin and gamma actin play roles in regulation of cell motility in other cell types. Specific subcellular structures such as stress fibers, focal adhesions, filopodia etc., are formed by involvement of actin cytoskeleton.SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody AGPS-03 recognizes AGPS (alkykglycerone phosphate synthase), an intracellular peroxisomal enzyme important for lipid biosynthesis.Application detailsWestern blotting: Recommended dilution: 1 μg/ml; positive control: murine femoral muscle, murine heart, negative control: HUVEC line; reducing conditions.
Immunohistochemistry (paraffin sections): Antigen retrieval steps generally not required, but e.g. in case of arterial smooth muscle cells or myoepithelial cells, pepsin or trypsin pretreatment is recommended.
