Short Decsription
This product is a ready-to-use IHC kit for staining of Alpha Actinin (ACTN1). The kit provides all reagents, from antigen retrieval to cover slip mounting, that require little to no diluting or handling prior to use. Simply apply the reagents to your sample slide according to the protocol and you're steps away from obtaining high-quality IHC data.
Description
Alpha Actinins are highly conserved actin-binding proteins that form antiparallel homodimers with the actin-binding domains on each end of the molecule, allowing crosslinking of actin molecules. There are four alpha actinin isoforms identified: two ubiquitously expressed cytoskeletal isoforms (ACTN1 and ACTN4) and two striated muscle-specific sarcomeric isoforms (ACTN2 and ACTN3). ACTN1 is also alternatively spliced to form smooth muscle or brain specific isoforms.
