Overview

  • Supplier
    GeneTex
  • Product Name
    alpha Smooth Muscle Actin antibody [1A4] (FITC)
  • Delivery Days Customer
    9
  • Antibody Specificity
    This 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 Note
    For 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 Description
    This 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.
