The amino-terminal of actin may function as an antigen. The protein is expressed in the cytoplasm. There are about six isoforms of actin identified.
Immunogen
β-actin antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide from near the carboxy-terminus of human β-actin.
Application
Anti-β-Actin antibody produced in chicken has been used for Western Blotting.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Actin is a cytoskeletal protein that regulates cell motility, secretion, cytoplasmic streaming, phagocytosis and cytokinesis. Mutations in the gene encoding this protein have been associated with Baraitser-Winter cerebrofrontofacial syndrome.

Depending on the environment, dendritic cells (DCs) may become active or tolerogenic, but little is known about whether heritable epigenetic modifications are involved in these processes. Here, we have found that epigenetic histone modifications can regulate the differentiation of human

Mixed pathology, with both Alzheimer's disease and vascular abnormalities, is the most common cause of clinical dementia in the elderly. While usually thought to be concurrent diseases, the fact that changes in cerebral blood flow are a prominent early and

Obesity and adipose tissue expansion is characterized by a chronic state of systemic inflammation that contributes to disease. The neuropeptide, oxytocin, working through its receptor has been shown to attenuate inflammation in sepsis, wound healing, and cardiovascular disease. The current

Sexual dimorphisms are observed in cannabinoid pharmacology. It is widely reported that female animals are more sensitive to the cataleptic, hypothermic, antinociceptive, and anti-locomotive effects of cannabinoid receptor agonists such as CP55,940. Despite awareness of these sex differences, there is
