Background Information
CAP1, also known as CAP, CAP1-PEN, belongs to the CAP family and contains 1 C-CAP/cofactor C-like domain. CAP1 binds to monomeric actin and regulates the actin cytoskeleton to control cell size, adhesion, and migration (PMID: 23737525). CAP1 also functions as a receptor for inflammatory cytokine resistin (PMID: 24606903). CAP1 is an abundant and ubiquitously expressed protein. Western blot analysis detected CAP1 at an apparent molecular mass of 50-55 kDa.

Reviews
What customers say
Both reviewers used this antibody for Western Blot at a 1:1,000 dilution and reported positive results. One user tested it in human coronary artery endothelial cells and described excellent performance, expressing satisfaction with the antibody's reliability. The other user tested it in hippocampal homogenate and observed a sharp band just over 50 kDa. Overall, the reviews reflect consistent, high-quality performance across different tissue types, with an average rating of 4.5 out of 5.
