Native Porcine Actin Protein

• Cat.No.: Actin-889P
• Product Overview: Native Porcine Actin was purified from Porcine smooth muscle.

Specification

• Description: Smooth muscle actin (porcine) contains a mixture of ~80% gamma and ~20% alpha smooth muscle actin. Actin is a single chain polypeptide with a molecular weight of 42kD consisting of 375 amino acids. The typical polymerization and depolymerization properties were compared with skeletal muscle actin in fluorimetrical analyses (see product images). By mixing both actins with 10% pyrene actin (rabbit skeletal muscle actin) different kinetics are observed.
• Source: Porcine smooth muscle
• Species: Porcine
• Form: 2mM Tris-Cl pH 8.2, 1mM ATP, 0.5mM DTT, 0.1mM CaCl2 and 0.4% disaccharides, when reconstituted with H2O.
