Beta Actin Products

Beta actin (ACTB) is one of six human actin isoforms, and one of only two nonmuscle cytoskeletal forms. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are required for cell motility, structure, and integrity. Because beta actin is ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells, beta actin is frequently used as a loading control for assays involving protein detection, such as Western blotting and ELISA. Beta actin antibodies also provide a specific and useful tool in studying the intracellular distribution of beta actin and the static and dynamic aspects of the cytoskeleton.
