Background Information
Alpha Actinins are highly conserved actin-binding proteins that form antiparallel homodimers with the actin-binding domains on each end of the molecule, allowing crosslinking of actin molecules. There are four alpha actinin isoforms identified: two ubiquitously expressed cytoskeletal isoforms (ACTN1 and ACTN4) and two striated muscle-specific sarcomeric isoforms (ACTN2 and ACTN3). ACTN1 is also alternatively spliced to form smooth muscle or brain specific isoforms. This antibody recognize endogenous ACTN1, while it may cross-react with ACTN2 and ACTN4.

Reviews
What customers say
Both reviewers gave this antibody a 5-star rating. One user reported excellent, consistent results in immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed mouse myocardium at a 1/100 dilution. The other confirmed reliable performance in Western Blot on human umbilical vein tissue at a 1:1000 dilution, noting a clean 1:1 actinin band ratio. Overall, customers find this antibody highly specific and reproducible across applications.
