Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-Profilin 1 (PRF1) [mAbPRF1a]
  • Alternate names: PRF1
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary Antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Arabidopsis
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: IF ; WB
  • Description: Profilin is a low-molecular weight, actin monomer-binding protein that regulates the organization of actin cytoskeleton in eukaryotes. Profilin promotes actin assembly at the barbed end of filaments and causes depolymerization of filaments by binding and sequestering G-actin. Profilin also interacts with several other ligands, such as membrane polyphospho-inositides, short proline rich stretches in proteins, and the Arp 2/3 complex.
  • Immunogen: Purified plant Profilin 1
  • Isotype: IgG2a
  • Research area: Cell Structure and Motility

  • For Research Use Only
