Function

F-actin-capping proteins bind in a Ca(2+)-independent manner to the fast growing ends of actin filaments (barbed end) thereby blocking the exchange of subunits at these ends. Unlike other capping proteins (such as gelsolin and severin), these proteins do not sever actin filaments. May play a role in the formation of epithelial cell junctions.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton

Product Specifications

Mouse anti-Human/Mouse/Rat sapiens (Human) CAPZA1 Monoclonal Antibody is a recombinant protein. Suitable for ELISA and Western Blot applications.

SDS-PAGE: Single band at expected molecular weight confirming purity.

ELISA: Suitable as coating antigen or detection standard.

Western Blot: Compatible with standard Western Blot protocols.

Protein Interaction: Validated for SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance) and BLI (Bio-Layer Interferometry) studies.

Shipping: Shipped at ambient temperature. Lyophilized protein is stable during transit.

Storage: Store lyophilized protein at -20°C to -80°C. Reconstituted protein should be aliquoted and stored at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Shelf Life: 12 months from date of receipt when stored as recommended.

Shipping Time: Orders placed before 2 PM EST ship same day. International orders typically deliver within 5-10 business days.

Protein Biology

Function

F-actin-capping proteins bind in a Ca(2+)-independent manner to the fast growing ends of actin filaments (barbed end) thereby blocking the exchange of subunits at these ends. Unlike other capping proteins (such as gelsolin and severin), these proteins do not sever actin filaments. May play a role in the formation of epithelial cell junctions (PubMed:22891260). Forms, with CAPZB, the barbed end of the fast growing ends of actin filaments in the dynactin complex and stabilizes dynactin structure. The dynactin multiprotein complex activates the molecular motor dynein for ultra-processive transport along microtubules (By similarity)

Subunit

Component of the F-actin capping complex, composed of a heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. Subunit of dynactin, a multiprotein complex part of a tripartite complex with dynein and a adapter, such as BICDL1, BICD2 or HOOK3. The dynactin complex is built around ACTR1A/ACTB filament and consists of an actin-related filament composed of a shoulder domain, a pointed end and a barbed end. Its length is defined by its flexible shoulder domain. The soulder is composed of 2 DCTN1 subunits, 4 DCTN2 and 2 DCTN3. The 4 DCNT2 (via N-terminus) bind the ACTR1A filament and act as molecular rulers to determine the length. The pointed end is important for binding dynein-dynactin cargo adapters. Consists of 4 subunits: ACTR10, DCNT4, DCTN5 and DCTN6. The barbed end is composed of a CAPZA1:CAPZB heterodimers, which binds ACTR1A/ACTB filament and dynactin and stabilizes dynactin (By similarity). Component of the WASH complex, composed of F-actin-capping protein subunit alpha (CAPZA1, CAPZA2 or CAPZA3), F-actin-capping protein subunit beta (CAPZB), WASH (WASHC1, WASH2P, WASH3P, WASH4P, WASH5P or WASH6P), WASHC2 (WASHC2A or WASHC2C), WASHC3, WASHC4 and WASHC5. Interacts with S100A (By similarity). Interacts with S100B. Interacts with SH3BP1; recruits CAPZA1 to forming cell junctions (PubMed:22891260). Interacts with CD2AP (PubMed:22891260). Directly interacts with CRACD; this interaction decreases binding to actin (PubMed:30361697)

What is the shipping and delivery time?

Orders placed before 2 PM EST ship the same day. Domestic (US) delivery typically takes 2-3 business days. International orders deliver within 5-10 business days. All products are shipped at ambient temperature with appropriate packaging to ensure stability.

How should I store this recombinant protein?

Lyophilized proteins should be stored at -20°C to -80°C upon receipt. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Shelf life is 12 months from date of receipt when stored as recommended.

What quality controls are performed on your products?

Each product undergoes SDS-PAGE purity analysis (typically >85-95%), endotoxin testing, and bioactivity validation. Products are validated for ELISA, Western Blot, and SPR/BLI applications as specified on this product page. A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is available upon request.
