Antigen Background
Cytoplasmic actins are part of the microfilament system of cytoskeletal proteins. Smooth muscle actin is found in vascular walls, intestinal muscularis mucosae and muscularis propria and in the stroma of various tissues.
Product Specific Information
Enzyme pretreatment may enhance staining in some cases.

SMA (Alpha Smooth Muscle Actin) is recommended for the detection of specific antigens of interest in normal and ne...
Antigen Background
Spectrin is a cytoskeletal protein which has some structural homology with dystrophin, the protein that is defective in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. Subtle membrane damage frequently occurs during the excision and freezing of muscle biopsies. Labeling for spectrin must be used to monitor membrane integrity. NCL-SPEC1 recognizes the beta chain of spectrin in erythrocytes and muscle. NCL-SPEC1 reacts with human beta-sp...
Antigen Background
Dysferlin is the protein product of the 2p13 gene that is defective in patients with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi Myopathy (MM). Dysferlin is normally localized to the muscle plasma membrane. In patients with LGMD2B and MM, immunoreactivity to dysferlin is severely reduced or lost. Patients with other neuromuscular conditions demonstrate normal labeling patterns.
