anti-ARPC2 antibody
ARPC2 is one of seven subunits of the human Arp2/3 protein complex. The Arp2/3 protein complex has been implicated in the control of actin polymerization in cells and has been conserved through evolution. The exact role of ARPC2, the p34 subunit, has yet to be determined. Two alternatively spliced variants have been characterized to date. Additional alternatively spliced variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.

However, migration is also affected by other factors and so the actual band size observed may differ from that predicted. Common factors include... · post-translational modification - e.g. phosphorylation, glycosylation etc which increases the size of the protein · post-translation cleavage - e.g. many proteins are synthesized as pro-proteins, and then cleaved to give the active form, e.g. pro-caspases · splice variants - alternative splicing may create different sized proteins from the same gene · relative charge - the composition of amino acids (charged vs non-charged) multimers - e.g. dimerisation of a protein. This is usually prevented in reducing conditions, although strong interactions can result in the appearance of higher bands.
