GOAT ANTI CAPG

Goat anti Human CAPG antibody recognizes CAPG, also known as actin regulatory protein CAP-G, epididymis secretory protein Li 66 or gelsolin-like capping protein.

The CAPG gene encodes a member of the gelsolin/villin family of actin-regulatory proteins. The encoded protein reversibly blocks the barbed ends of F-actin filaments in a Ca2+ and phosphoinositide-regulated manner, but does not sever preformed actin filaments. By capping the barbed ends of actin filaments, the encoded protein contributes to the control of actin-based motility in non-muscle cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for CAPG (provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012).

Goat anti Human CAPG antibody detects a band of 43 kDa. The antibody has been extensively validated for western blotting using whole cell lysates.
