Capza1

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States

CAPZA1 is a protein that functions as a regulatory subunit of the CapZ complex, which is involved in the regulation of actin filament dynamics. It plays a role in the capping of the barbed ends of actin filaments, inhibiting the addition or loss of actin monomers.

Western Blot Analysis of Cytoskeletal Proteins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Huh7 and HepG2 cells were lysed with RIPA buffer (Beyotime, China) containing protease inhibitors or phosphatase inhibitors (Beyotime, China) for 30 min on ice. The cell lysate was centrifuged at 13000 ×g for 15 min at 4°C, and the supernatant was collected. F-actin (cytoskeletal proteins) were extracted followed by Extraction of cytoplasmic and cytoskeletal proteins. The lysate was heated at 100°C in a metal bath for 5 mins after mixing with 5× loading buffer. Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Millpore, USA). A solution of 5% skimmed milk was used to block the membranes at room temperature for 1 h and then incubated with a primary antibody at 4°C overnight. The next day, after washing the membranes three times with TBST, the PVDF membranes were incubated with homologous HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at room temperature for 1 h. Finally, the blots were visualized with ECL reagent using an imaging system (Vilber, France). Antibody descriptions were as follows: (FAM21C:1:1000, Millpore, USA; GAPDH:1:10,000, Proteintech, China; HA:1:1000, Roche, Switzerland; F-actin:1:1000, Abcam, USA; CAPZA1:1:5000, Abcam, USA; Flag:1: 1000, Sigma, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
