Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Alpha Skeletal Muscle Actin antibody - Cytoskeleton Marker (AB235928)
Paraffin-embedded human skeletal muscle tissue stained for Alpha Skeletal Muscle Actin using ab235928 at 1/400 dilution in immunohistochemical analysis.
After dewaxing and hydration, antigen retrieval was mediated by high pressure in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0). Section was blocked with 10% normal goat serum for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, primary antibody (1% BSA) was incubated at 4°C overnight. The primary is detected by a biotinylated secondary antibody and visualized tissue using an HRP conjugated SP system.

Biological function summary
Alpha Skeletal Muscle Actin plays an essential role in the contractile apparatus of muscle cells. It exists as part of the actin filament complex interacting closely with myosin motor proteins. This interaction powers the sliding mechanism that enables muscle contraction and relaxation. Alpha-actin is responsible for mechanical stiffness and tension within muscle tissues enabling muscle fibers to withstand physical stress. The protein's structural role in muscle cells makes it indispensable for proper muscle function and muscle fiber stability.
Pathways
Alpha Skeletal Muscle Actin is deeply involved in the cytoskeletal organization and muscle contraction pathways. It is pivotal in the actin-myosin interaction pathway where it binds to troponin and tropomyosin which regulate muscle contraction cycles. Within these pathways the protein ensures coordinated muscle contractions alongside other proteins like myosin heavy chain and tropomyosin. These interactions coordinate muscle contraction maintaining muscle tone and health.
