Function
Actin-binding protein that enhances membrane ruffling and RAC activation. Enhances the actin-bundling activity of LCP1. Binds calcium. Plays a role in RAC signaling and in phagocytosis. May play a role in macrophage activation and function. Promotes the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and of T-lymphocytes. Enhances lymphocyte migration. Plays a role in vascular inflammation. -
Tissue specificity
Detected in T-lymphocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 2 EF-hand domains. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylated on serine residues. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm > cytoskeleton. Cell projection > ruffle membrane. Associated with the actin cytoskeleton at membrane ruffles and at sites of phagocytosis. - Information by UniProt

Immunocytochemistry analysis of Jurkat (Human T cell leukemia T lymphocyte) cells labeling Iba1 with purified ab178680 at 1:100 dilution (9.7 µg/ml). Cells were fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% tritonX-100. Cells were counterstained with Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/200 dilution (2.5 µg/ml) (ab195889) (red). Goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1:1000 (2 µg/ml) dilution. DAPI (blue) was used as a nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human kidney tissue sections labeling Iba1 with purified ab178680 at 1:16000 (0.06 µg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using ab93678 (citrate buffer, pH 6.0). Tissue was counterstained with Hematoxylin. ImmunoHistoProbe one step HRP Polymer (ready to use) was used at 1:0 dilution. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the negative control.

Flow Cytometry analysis of K-562 (Human chronic myelogenous leukemia lymphoblast) cells labelling Iba1 with purified ab178680 at 1/100 dilution (10 µg/ml) (red). Cells were fixed with 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% Methanol. A Goat anti-rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) secondary antibody was used at 1/2000. Isotype control - Rabbit monoclonal IgG (black). Unlabelled control - Cell without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (blue).
