MCF7 mammary gland cells were fixed with cold methanol for ten minutes and blocked with 5% FBS for 30 minutes. Then, the cells were stained with 2.5 µg/mL of anti β-actin (clone 2F1-1) Alexa Fluor® 594 (red) at room temperature for two hours. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). The image was captured with a 60X objective. -
Human paraffin-embedded intestine was prepared with standard deparaffination, rehydration, antigen retrieval and blocking protocols. Tissue was stained with anti-β-actin (clone 2F1-1) Alexa Fluor® 594 (red), and DAPI (blue). See additional supplemental data for detailed information.

β-actin is a ubiquitously expressed and highly conserved 42 kD cytoplasmic protein involved in cell motility. This critical cytoskeletal component can be disrupted by drugs such as cytochalasin. Because β-actin is ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells, it is frequently used as a loading control for assays involving protein detection (such as Western blotting).
