Gene Information

Arabidopsis thaliana ... ACT12(823805)

General description

Actin/ actin β(ACTB) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 7p15-p12. In mammals, actin protein consists of six different isoforms encoded by separate genes. The four isoforms αskeletal-actin, αcardiac-actin, αsmooth-actin, and γ smooth-actin are expressed in skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle. The other two isoforms, β cyto-actin and γ cyto-actin are ubiquitously expressed.

Specificity

The antibody detects endogenous levels of total ACTIN protein.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the N terminal of Arabidopsis thaliana actin

Biochem/physiol Actions

Actin plays a vital role in various cellular processes, such as cell division, migration, junction formation, chromatin remodeling, transcriptional regulation, vesicle trafficking, and cell shape regulation. Polymorphism in the smooth muscle α-actin (ACTA2) is associated with the development of thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections.
