Antibodies against β actin

Manufactured by Cell Signaling Technology
Sourced in United States

Antibodies against β-actin are a type of laboratory equipment used to detect and quantify the expression of the β-actin protein in biological samples. β-actin is a widely expressed cytoskeletal protein that is commonly used as a reference or housekeeping gene for normalization in various experimental techniques, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry.

Cells were washed in PBS, and whole-cell extracts were prepared in lysis buffer (Tris-HCl (20 mM), pH 7.4, NaCl (150 mM), and glycerol (10% (v/v)), Nonidet P-40 (0.2%), EGTA (1 mM), EDTA (1 mM), PMSF (1 mM), NaF (10 mM), leupeptin (20 mM), aprotinin (5 mg/mL), and sodium orthovanadate (1 mM)) and centrifuged at 8,000 ×g for 15 min. Protein concentrations were measured using the BCA assay (Pierce). Protein (50 μg) was separated on a 15% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel and then transferred to PVDF membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA). Membranes were incubated overnight with primary antibodies specific to UCP2 (1 : 1000, Biolegend), p-AMPK (1 : 2000, Cell Signaling Technology), caspase-3 (1 : 1000, Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly MA, USA), and LC3 (1 : 2000, Cell Signaling Technology) at 4°C overnight.

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.
