Product name:Human ACTN-3 ELISA Kit
Description:
ACTN3 (Alpha-actinin) is an actin-binding protein and is expressed only in a subset of type 2 skeletal muscle fibers. It is localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where it helps to anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. It is a Homodimer and also forms heterodimers with ACTN2 and interacts with MYOZ1. Although about 18% of the world population lack a functional ACTN3 gnen due to a stop codon polymorphism at position 577, the absence of functional ACTN3 expression is not correlated with a disease state.
