Introduction
ActinGreen™ 488 stain is used for F-actin stain. The green fluorescent probe binds to F-actin with nanomolar affinity and it is highly photostable. Fluorescently labeled phallotoxins are very useful tool for investigating the distribution of F-actin. Labeled phallotoxins have similar affinity for both large and small filaments, binding in a stoichiometric ratio of about one phalloidin molecule per actin subunit in muscle and nonmuscle cells from various species of plants and animals.
