Gene Information

General description

Myosin is a 480,000 dalton protein containing two identical heavy chains (200,000 daltons each) and four light chains (15,000-26,000 daltons). Myosin molecules consist of two major regions: tails (rods) and heads; they aggregate into filaments through the tail region. Multiple forms of myosin heavy chains exist for each muscle type; skeletal, cardiac, smooth and non-muscle isomyosin forms exist in different types of skeletal muscle, depending on the physiological function of the muscle.

Specificity

Specifically labels the A bands of human and animal skeletal muscle. Does not stain human smooth muscle tissue.

Immunogen

whole myosin (heavy and light chains) from human skeletal muscle.

Application

Anti-Myosin (Skeletal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:

The possibility of using stem cells for regenerative medicine has opened a new field of investigation. The search for sources to obtain multipotent stem cells from discarded tissues or through non-invasive procedures is of great interest. It has been shown

Skeletal muscle regeneration depends on the satellite cells, which, in response to injury, activate, proliferate, and reconstruct damaged tissue. However, under certain conditions, such as large injuries or myopathies, these cells might not sufficiently support repair. Thus, other cell populations
