Actin

Actin

Ultra pure Actin consists in the alpha-skeletal muscle isoform and is purified from rabbit striated muscle.
The purification method used (according to Spudich & Watts) results in a highly purified protein having a Molecular mass of 43,000 dalton.

Accession Number

N/A

Applications

Protein standard in 1D and 2D SDS gel electrophoresis
Immunoassays
Immunization.

Formulation

The protein was lyophilized from a 1mg/ml solution containing 10mM Tris/HCl buffer pH 8.0, 0.2mM CaCl2, 0.2mM ATP, 1mM DTT and 0.5% (w/v) SDS.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Purity

Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Actin in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Source

Rabbit Muscle.

Stability

Lyophilized Actin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC. Upon reconstitution Actin should be stored at 4oC between 2-7 days and for future use below
-18oC.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
