Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved invarious types of cell motility, and maintenance of thecytoskeleton.In vertebrates, three main groups of actin isoforms,alpha, beta and gamma have been identified.The alpha actins arefound in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of thecontractile apparatus.The beta and gamma actins co-exist in mostcell types as components of the cytoskeleton, and as mediators ofinternal cell motility.Actin, gamma 2, encoded by this gene, is asmooth muscle actin found in enteric tissues.
Titration of the ACTG2 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
A portion of amino acids 343-371 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this ACTG2 antibody.
Aliquot the ACTG2 antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
