Scientific Data Images for Actin Antibody (mAbGEa)

Western Blot: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340]

Western Blot: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340]

Western Blot: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340] - Total protein from HeLa, 3T3, PC12 and Bovine normal tissue was separated on a 12% gel by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membrane and blocked in 5% non-fat milk in TBST. The membrane was probed with 1.0 ug/mL anti-Actin in 5% blocking buffer and detected with an anti-mouse IgM secondary antibody using chemiluminescence.
Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340]

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340]

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340] - NIH-3T3 cells were fixed for 10 minutes using 10% formalin and then permeabilized for 5 minutes using 1X PBS + 0.05% Triton X-100. The cells were incubated with anti-Actin (mAbGEa) at 5 ug/mL overnight at 4C and detected with an anti-Mouse IgM DyLight 488 (Green) at a 1:500 dilution. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Cells were imaged using a 40X objective.
Simple Western: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340]

Simple Western: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340]

Simple Western: Actin Antibody (mAbGEa) [NB100-74340] - Image shows a specific band for Actin in 0.1 mg/mL of HeLa lysate. This experiment was performed under reducing conditions using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Flow (Intracellular)

1 ug/ml

Flow Cytometry

1 ug/ml

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence

1:20-1:100

Immunohistochemistry

1:200

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin

Application Notes
In Western blot, a band is seen at ~45 kDa representing Actin. The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors. In IHC-P and ICC/IF, cytoplasmic staining is observed. Prior to immunostaining paraffin tissues, antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) is recommended. In Simple Western only 10 - 15 uL of the recommended dilution is used per data point. Separated by Size-Wes, Sally Sue/Peggy Sue.
Please Note: Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.

Background: Actin

Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility, and maintenance of the cytoskeleton. In vertebrates, three main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta and gamma have been identified. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. The beta and gamma actins co-exist in most cell types as components of the cytoskeleton, and as mediators of internal cell motility.
