Application

Monoclonal Anti-Beta-Actin antibody produced in mouse has been used in western blotting at a dilution of 1:1000.

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-actin (ACTB) forms the core of the cell cytoskeleton. The polymerization of β-actin is essential for cell physiology. It may serve as a potential chemotherapeutic agent. Mutation in the ACTBgene is implicated in sensory hearing loss, delayed-onset generalized dystonia and a combination of ventral midline malformations. A loss-of-function mutation in the ACTB gene may cause intellectual disability.
