Background
Beta-actin (human gene and protein abbreviation ACTB/ACTB) is one of six different actin isoforms which have been identified in humans. This is one of the two non-muscle cytoskeletal actins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure and integrity. Beta actin is often used in Western blotting as a loading control, to normalize total protein amounts and check for eventual protein degradation in the samples. Its transcript is also commonly used as a housekeeping gene standard in qPCR. Its molecular weight is approximately 42 kDa.

Immunocytochemistry


ICC shows positive staining in HeLa cells. Anti-β-actin (FITC conjugate) antibody was used at 1/100 dilution (Green) and incubated overnight at 4°C. The cells were fixed with 100% ice-cold methanol and permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue).


ICC shows positive staining in C6 cells. Anti-β-actin (FITC conjugate) antibody was used at 1/100 dilution (Green) and incubated overnight at 4°C. The cells were fixed with 100% ice-cold methanol and permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue).

ICC shows positive staining in NIH/3T3 cells. Anti-β-actin (FITC conjugate) antibody was used at 1/100 dilution (Green) and incubated overnight at 4°C. The cells were fixed with 100% ice-cold methanol and permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue).
