ACTA1/ACTA2A/ACTG2 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6941399

Product Details anti-ACTA1/ACTA2A/ACTG2 Antibody

Target: ACTA1/ACTA2A/ACTG2 (ACTA1 (Skeletal), ACTA2 (Smooth), ACTG2 (Smooth))

Reactivity: Human, Rabbit, Rat

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This ACTA1/ACTA2A/ACTG2 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Staining Methods (StM), Western Blotting (WB)

Specificity: This antibody recognizes actin of skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle cells. It is not reactive with other mesenchymal cells except for myoepithelium. Actin can be resolved on the basis of its isoelectric points into three distinctive components: alpha, beta, and gamma in order of increasing isoelectric point. Anti-muscle specific actin recognizes alpha and gamma isotypes of all muscle groups. Non-muscle cells such as vascular endothelial cells and connective tissues are non-reactive. Also, neoplastic cells of non-muscle-derived tissue such as carcinomas, melanomas, and lymphomas are negative.It stains tumors of smooth muscle (leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas) as well as skeletal muscle (rhabdomyomas and rhabdomyosarcomas).

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Synthetic peptide common among human muscle actins

Clone: MSA-953

Isotype: IgG1 kappa
