Actin from rabbit muscle 

One of the major proteins of muscle and an important component of all eukaryotic cells.; The preparation can be used as a reference standard for SDS-PAGE and 2D-electrophoresis¹; Role in muscle contraction and relaxation, but also involved in a variety of cellular events: cell movement, cytokinesis, chromosome movement, phagocytosis and exocytosis.; Actin amino-acid sequences²; Actin polymerization and its regulation by proteins from non-muscle cells³; Biochemistry of actomyosin-dependent cell motility⁴
