General description

Myosin is a 480,000 dalton protein containing two identical heavy chains (200,000 daltons each) and four light chains (15,000-26,000 daltons). Myosin molecules consist of two major regions: tails (rods) and heads; they aggregate into filaments through the tail region. Multiple forms of myosin heavy chains exist for each muscle type; skeletal, cardiac, smooth and non-muscle isomyosin forms exist in different types of skeletal muscle, depending on the physiological function of the muscle.

Immunogen

whole myosin (heavy and light chains) from human skeletal muscle.

Quality

The antiserum has been treated to remove lipoproteins.

Specificity

Specifically labels the A bands of human and animal skeletal muscle. Does not stain human smooth muscle tissue.
