Product overview:

alpha-actinin (Actinin alpha 1) mouse monoclonal antibody, clone LBI7A4

Field of research:

Adherens junction, Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), Focal adhesion, Leukocyte transendothelial migration, Regulation of actin cytoskeleton, Systemic lupus erythematosus, Tight junction

Summary:

Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments.
