ab213262 was shown to react with ACTNB (beta actin) when tested against HAP1 wild-type and HAP1 ACTNB (beta actin) knockout cells. ACTNB wild-type and knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE and incubated with ab213262. Incomplete reduction of signal was seen in the ACTNB (beta actin) knockout samples at beta actin's expected molecular weight. SDS-PAGE of gamma actin recombinant protein and incubation with ab213262 showed cross-reactivity to gamma actin. ab213262 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at a 1ug/ml and 1/10000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Supplementary information

Gamma actin also known as actin gamma 1 and actin kDa is an essential actin protein found in the cytoskeleton. It is expressed widely in various tissues including muscle and non-muscle cells. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 42 kDa. Gamma actin plays a mechanical role in maintaining cellular shape and facilitating cell motility by polymerizing into filamentous structures known as F-actin. It has alternate names such as 2a-3' and actin green in some contexts.
Biological function summary

Gamma actin contributes significantly to the structure of the cytoskeleton affecting cell shape and function. It forms part of actin filament complexes that provide tension and support to the cell. In both muscle and non-muscle cells gamma actin interacts with other actin isoforms to ensure filament stability and elasticity. These interactions are important for processes like cell division signal transduction and cellular transport.

Pathways

Gamma actin is involved in pathways related to cell motility and division. This protein is integral to the actin cytoskeleton pathway and has connections with proteins such as profilin and cofilin which regulate actin filament dynamics. Additionally it plays roles in signal transduction pathways that control cellular responses to external signals working alongside proteins like the Rho GTPases.

Gamma actin has been linked to conditions such as deafness and certain types of cancer. Mutations in the ACTG1 gene encoding gamma actin have been associated with hereditary hearing loss. In cancer changes in gamma actin expression can affect cell migration and invasion contributing to tumor progression. The protein's interaction with other actins and related proteins like actin-binding proteins makes it a critical factor in the molecular mechanisms underlying these diseases.

General info

Function

Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells. May play a role in the repair of noise-induced stereocilia gaps thereby maintains hearing sensitivity following loud noise damage (By similarity).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the actin family.

Post-translational modifications

Oxidation of Met-44 and Met-47 by MICALs (MICAL1, MICAL2 or MICAL3) to form methionine sulfoxide promotes actin filament depolymerization. MICAL1 and MICAL2 produce the (R)-S-oxide form. The (R)-S-oxide form is reverted by MSRB1 and MSRB2, which promote actin repolymerization.. Monomethylation at Lys-84 (K84me1) regulates actin-myosin interaction and actomyosin-dependent processes. Demethylation by ALKBH4 is required for maintaining actomyosin dynamics supporting normal cleavage furrow ingression during cytokinesis and cell migration.. Actin, cytoplasmic 2. N-terminal cleavage of acetylated methionine of immature cytoplasmic actin by ACTMAP.. Actin, cytoplasmic 2, N-terminally processed. N-terminal acetylation by NAA80 affects actin filament depolymerization and elongation, including elongation driven by formins (PubMed:29581253). In contrast, filament nucleation by the Arp2/3 complex is not affected (PubMed:29581253).. Methylated at His-73 by SETD3.. (Microbial infection) Monomeric actin is cross-linked by V.cholerae toxins RtxA and VgrG1 in case of infection: bacterial toxins mediate the cross-link between Lys-50 of one monomer and Glu-270 of another actin monomer, resulting in formation of highly toxic actin oligomers that cause cell rounding (PubMed:19015515). The toxin can be highly efficient at very low concentrations by acting on formin homology family proteins: toxic actin oligomers bind with high affinity to formins and adversely affect both nucleation and elongation abilities of formins, causing their potent inhibition in both profilin-dependent and independent manners (PubMed:26228148).
