Extra Details:: The cytoskeleton consists of three types of cytosolic fibers: microtubules, microfilaments (actin filaments), and intermediate filaments. Globular tubulin subunits comprise the microtubule building block, with α/β-tubulin heterodimers forming the tubulin subunit common to all eukaryotic cells. γ-tubulin is required to nucleate polymerization of tubulin subunits to form microtubule polymers. Many cell movements are mediated by microtubule action, including the beating of cilia and flagella, cytoplasmic transport of membrane vesicles, chromosome alignment during meiosis/mitosis, and nerve-cell axon migration. These movements result from competitive microtubule polymerization and depolymerization or through the actions of microtubule motor proteins (1). Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Immunofluorescence, Immunocytochemistry, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications have not been tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1:1000 Immunofluorescence (IC): 1:1000-1:2000 Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 1:50-1:200 Flow Cytometry (fixed/permeabilized): 1:400-1:1600 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
