ANTI-ARPC1B

General description

The Arp2/3 complex is composed of seven subunits, such as Arp2, Arp3, p41-Arc, p34-Arc, p21-Arc, p20-Arc, and p16-Arc (p complex). Among all the subunits, ARPC1B is a novel member of the Sop2 family of WD (tryptophan and aspartate) repeat-containing proteins.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ARPC1B (actin related protein 2/3 complex, subunit 1B, 41kDa) is involved in the formation of actin filamentous network at the cell cortex. The protein subunit (ARPC1B) may maintain the structure and activity of the Arp2/3 complex. Overexpression of p41-Arc, a regulatory component of Arp2/3 complex causes the alteration of actin filaments. It gets accumulated in nuclei. Further, this alteration can trigger an intrinsic premature senescence in the tumor suppression process.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
