Preparation and Storage

Background: beta-Actin

Actin makes up the most abundant protein in many eukaryotic cell types. It polymerizes to form microfilaments that have an array of functions, including regulating contractility, motility, cytokinesis, phagocytosis, adhesion, cell morphology, and providing structural support. At least six types of Actin, falling into three categories, exist in higher eukaryotes. The three types, separated based on isoelectric point, include alpha ( alpha -Skeletal, alpha -Cardiac, alpha -Smooth Muscle), beta ( beta -Non-muscle) and gamma
( gamma -Smooth Muscle, gamma -non-muscle) isoforms.  Non-muscle beta - and gamma -actin are also known as cytoplasmic actin.
