Actin (bovine alpha cardiac actin) - 4x250 µg
Actin
α-cardiac actin, bovine
Description
| Protein | Actin (α-Actin) |
| Origin | Cardiac muscle alpha actin, bovine |
| Molecular mass | 42 kDa |
| Protein description | Actin from bovine cardiac muscle is a single chain polypeptide with a molecular weight of 42 kDa consisting of 375 amino acids. |
| Purity | >99% by scanning densitometry. |
Properties
| Form | Lyophilized, ready-to-use. |
| Quantity per unit | 4x 0.5 mg |
| Buffer | 2 mM Tris-Cl pH 8.2, 0.4 mM ATP, 0.5 mM DTT, 0.1 mM CaCl2, 1 mM NaN3 and 0.3% disaccharides, when reconstituted with 1.0 ml ultrapure water to obtain a 1 mg/ml solution. |
| Related products | For dilution of G-actin or exchange of ligand buffer into actin compatible buffer, MonoMix (Cat. #.: 5100-0*) may be used. In the absence of nucleators, the polymerization of G-actin is initiated by PolyMix (Cat. #: 5000-0*). |
