beta-Actin Antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to C-Terminal region near amino acids 350-375 of Human beta Actin. (Uniprot: P60709)
Reactivity Notes
Lithobates (Leopard frog)
beta-Actin Loading Control Antibody is expected to cross-react with a wide range of species due to sequence homology. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest that this antibody would react with beta Actin from a wide range of organisms, including most vertebrates and some yeast

Application Notes
This product has been tested for use in ELISA, immunofluorescence, and western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Beta actin present in fibroblast connective tissue stains very brightly. Beta actin present in neuromuscular junctions also stains. Paraformaldehyde fixation yields brighter staining than formalin or methanol fixation. Expect a band at ~42 kDa in size corresponding to beta actin by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract.
