The Actin-Toolkit SPR is a unique method to analyze ligand interactions with actin filaments. The kit is

available with α-actin (rabbit skeletal muscle) and bovine α-cardiac actin.  

The analysis of proteins, lipids or pharmacological compounds to analyze kinetics and affinity of ligands

specifically binding to F-Actin.

 


Applications

• Characterization of binding kinetics and dissociation constants of ligands binding to F-actin

• Analysis of proteins, lipids or pharmacological compounds altering ligand-actin-interaction

   

Description

 Protein

 

Actin (α-skeletal/cardiac muscle Actin)

 Origin

 

Skeletal/Cardiac muscle alpha actin, rabbit/bovine

 Molecular mass

 

42kDa

Toolkit description

 

Binding of ligands to filamentous actin is used as a functional proof to state the

 

 

biological activity of a ligand and characterizes the ligand to be an actin binding

 

 

protein. Furthermore, the specific actin binding strongly indicates that the ligand is

 

 

correctly folded and structurally intact.

 

 

The Actin-Toolkit SPR provides a unique method to precisely analyze ligand-F-actin

 

 

interactions by Surface Plasmon Resonance techniques on Streptavidin chips. To

 

 

overcome the general problem in SPR - which is that the actin filaments clog the

 

 

capillaries of the device - short actinfilaments with AnkerproteinTM on the fast

 

 

polymerizing barbed ends are used for for coating. The actin filaments protrude

 

 

from the surface of the chip and permit the introduction of ligands. After the actin

 

 

filaments become attached to the surface of the chip, ligands can be introduced

 

 

to investigate binding to F-actin.

 

 

The Actin-Toolkit SPR was developed to analyze the actin-binding properties of

 

 

ligands (native or recombinant proteins, recombinant fragments etc.) and to support

 

 

the detection even of cryptic actin-binding sites. Further it is suitable to investigate

 

 

effects of pharmacological compounds on ligand-actin complexes, as well as

 

 

further proteins, lipids etc. to ligand-actin complexes.

 

 

The kit contains rabbit skeletal muscle actin (Cat. # 8010-03), AnkerproteinTM, FAB-

 

 

P, GAP-EP (SPR actin buffers for F-and G-actin). A handbook introduces and

 

 

E guides through the experimental work with actin in SPR.

 

 

Please note that the user requires Streptavidin coated chips. The setup for the

 

 

compounds to investigate has to be determined individually.

 Purity
