Fluorescent Actin
Fluorescent Actin Proteins
Cytoskeleton Inc. offers several fluorescently-labeled purified actin proteins including the new HiLyte™488 actin and HiLyte™555 actins. The expanded offering will provide more versatility for researchers while complementing our existing labeled actin tools that are used in an array of applications including labeling F-actin barbed ends with rhodamine actin. See the Application Table below for a variety of in vivo & in vitro uses for these reagents.
