Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab20272 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

  • WB: 1/5000Detects a band of approximately 42 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 42 kDa).(Abcam strongly recommends blocking and incubation using 5% BSA as we have found that use of 5% milk seems to drastically reduce the intensity of the signal obtained. Please refer to WB image for further details.)

Target

Function

Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells.

Involvement in disease

Defects in ACTB are a cause of dystonia juvenile-onset (DYTJ) [MIM:607371]. DYTJ is a form of dystonia with juvenile onset. Dystonia is defined by the presence of sustained involuntary muscle contraction, often leading to abnormal postures. DYTJ patients manifest progressive, generalized, dopa-unresponsive dystonia, developmental malformations and sensory hearing loss.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the actin family.

Post-translational
modifications

ISGylated.

Cellular localization

Cytoplasm > cytoskeleton. Localized in cytoplasmic mRNP granules containing untranslated mRNAs.

The membrane 1-4 was blocked in 5% BSA (1 hour). The membrane 5-8 was blocked in 5% MILK (1 hour). Abcam routinely uses 5% BSA to block, however following recent customer feedback our labs investigated the effect of 5% milk blocking. We can now confirm that milk is not a suitable blocking agent for this antibody and significantly decreases the signal on the membrane.
