Overview
- SupplierGeneTex
- Product Namealpha Smooth Muscle Actin antibody [1A4] (FITC)
- Delivery Days Customer9
- Antibody SpecificityThis antibody reacts with the alpha-smooth muscle isoform of actin. It does not react with actin from fibroblasts (beta- and gamma-cytoplasmic), striated muscle (alpha-sarcomeric) and myocardium (alpha-myocardial).
- Application Supplier NoteFor IF: Use at 10-20 microg/ml for 2 hours at room temperature. For IF: paraffin-embedded or frozen sections, as well as on cell smears can be used. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

- Scientific DescriptionThis gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, integrity, and intercellular signaling. The encoded protein is a smooth muscle actin that is involved in vascular contractility and blood pressure homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause a variety of vascular diseases, such as thoracic aortic disease, coronary artery disease, stroke, and Moyamoya disease, as well as multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome.
