Actin Beta antibody
Rabbit anti actin beta antibody recognizes the product of the ACTB gene, cytoplasmic actin beta, also known as actin cytoplasmic and beta actin1. Actin beta is ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells, playing a critical role in cell survival, motility and re-modeling.
Actin beta is highly conserved throughout evolution, with all vertebrate and invertebrate species reviewed to date bearing a 98% or greater amino acid primary sequence identity to human actin beta. Plant species also exhibit a high degree of primary sequence conservation displaying considerable similarity to animal actin beta. For example, nearly 90% sequence identity is observed between human ACTB and the model plant species Arabidopsis thaliana (mouse eared cress) ACT1 (Arabidopsis) gene products. Actin beta is a commonly used western blotting loading control.
