Scientific Data Images for Human beta-Actin Antibody

beta-Actin antibody in HeLa Human Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

beta‑Actin in HeLa Human Cell Line.

beta-Actin was detected in immersion fixed HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line using Mouse Anti-Human beta-Actin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB8969) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

Background: beta-Actin

Actin makes up the most abundant protein in many eukaryotic cell types. It polymerizes to form microfilaments that have an array of functions, including regulating contractility, motility, cytokinesis, phagocytosis, adhesion, cell morphology, and providing structural support. At least six types of Actin, falling into three categories, exist in higher eukaryotes. The three types, separated based on isoelectric point, include alpha ( alpha -Skeletal, alpha-Cardiac, alpha-Smooth Muscle), beta ( beta-Non-muscle) and  gamma
( gamma-Smooth Muscle, gamma-non-muscle) isoforms.  Non-muscle beta- and gamma-actin are also known as cytoplasmic actin.
