Product details
Phalloidin-iFluor 700 Reagent (ab176761) is one of a series of phalloidin conjugates that bind to actin filaments, also known as F-actin. Phalloidin-iFluor 700 can be detected with a fluorescent microscope at Ex/Em = 692/708 nm (NIR range).
Each 300 test product includes 1 vial containing 30 µg of iFluor 700-dye-conjugated-phalloidin in 30 µl of DMSO at a concentration of 1 mg/mL. We recommend using this at a 1:1000 dilution, see protocol booklet for more instructions.
phalloidin conjugates are convenient probes for labeling, identifying and quantifying animal or plant actin filaments in formaldehyde-fixed and permeabilized tissue sections, cell cultures or cell-free experiments. They can also be used in paraffin-embedded samples that have been de-paraffinized.
Phalloidin binds to actin filaments much more tightly than to actin monomers, leading to a decrease in the dissociation rate of actin subunits from filaments ends, essentially stabilizing actin filaments through the prevention of filament depolymerization.

Biological function summary
The actin cytoskeleton plays integral roles in maintaining cell shape providing mechanical resistance against deformation and driving important cellular processes such as endocytosis cell division and motility. F-actin forms part of numerous protein complexes interacting with other proteins like myosin to facilitate muscle contraction and cellular transport. Within cells F-actin is dynamic readily polymerizing and depolymerizing in response to cellular signaling making it essential for cytoskeletal remodeling and cellular adaptability.
Pathways
F-actin is central to various signaling cascades underlying processes like cell signaling and intracellular transport. Notably it participates in the Rho family GTPase pathway affecting cell cytoskeleton organization and motility. It also interacts with proteins like cofilin and profilin which regulate actin polymerization and treadmilling dynamics respectively. These interactions highlight F-actin's involvement in complex cellular pathway regulation processes essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and adaptability.
