Actin, Muscle Specific [ABT-MSA] Mouse mAb
Product details
Background:
Actin is a a highly conserved cytoskeletal protein, which contains 6 isoformes, of which 4 are muscle tissue specific: α- skeletal muscle actin, α- cardiac muscle actin, α- smooth muscle actin, γ- Smooth muscle actin. Muscle actin is expressed in skeletal muscle, cardiac and smooth muscle, and muscle derived tumors such as leiomyoma and rhabdomyosarcoma. It is usually not expressed in endothelial cells, connective tissue, melanoma, lymphoma and non myogenic sarcoma.

| Function | Disease:Defects in ACTC1 are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1R (CMD1R) [MIM:102540]. Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Patients are at risk of premature death.,Disease:Defects in ACTC1 are the cause of cardiomyopathy familial hypertrophic type 11 (CMH11) [MIM:612098]. Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a hereditary heart disorder characterized by ventricular hypertrophy, which is usually asymmetric and often involves the interventricular septum. The symptoms include dyspnea, syncope, collapse, palpitations, and chest pain. They can be readily provoked by exercise. The disorder has inter- and intrafamilial variability ranging from benign to malignant forms with high risk of cardiac failure and sudden cardiac death.,Function:Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells.,miscellaneous:In vertebrates 3 main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta and gamma have been identified. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. The beta and gamma actins coexist in most cell types as components of the cytoskeleton and as mediators of internal cell motility.,similarity:Belongs to the actin family.,subunit:Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin) in the form of a two-stranded helix. Each actin can bind to 4 others., |
