products description :
The Actin protein a component of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton is highly conserved between multiple species. It is 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. The levels of the Actin protein may vary between different cell types. But are consistent within a given cell type, and for this reason, Actin protein levels are considered an internal control for protein loading.
