ACTL6B refers to a protein target that is studied across multiple biological contexts; annotations and nomenclature can vary by species and isoform. This product corresponds to the Homo sapiens (Human) sequence context, which can be important when comparing homologs or orthologs across model systems. For curated functional annotations, domains, and sequence features, consult primary databases (e.g., UniProt\/NCBI) and the recent literature for the specific organism and isoform.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDissecting domain-specific functions of regulatory proteins involved in chromatin organization and transcriptional control.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMapping protein–protein and protein–nucleic acid interactions that coordinate gene expression programs.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBuilding in vitro assays for enzymatic activities and reader–writer–eraser mechanisms linked to epigenetic regulation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelevance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Involved in transcriptional activation and repression of select genes by chromatin remodeling (alteration of DNA-nucleosome topology). Component of SWI\/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes that carry out key enzymatic activities, changing chromatin structure by altering DNA-histone contacts within a nucleosome in an ATP-dependent manner. Belongs to the neuron-specific chromatin remodeling complex (nBAF complex), as such plays a role in remodeling mononucleosomes in an ATP-dependent fashion, and is required for postmitotic neural development and dendritic outgrowth. During neural development a switch from a stem\/progenitor to a postmitotic chromatin remodeling mechanism occurs as neurons exit the cell cycle and become committed to their adult state. The transition from proliferating neural stem\/progenitor cells to postmitotic neurons requires a switch in subunit composition of the npBAF and nBAF complexes. As neural progenitors exit mitosis and differentiate into neurons, npBAF complexes which contain ACTL6A\/BAF53A and PHF10\/BAF45A, are exchanged for homologous alternative ACTL6B\/BAF53B and DPF1\/BAF45B or DPF3\/BAF45C subunits in neuron-specific complexes (nBAF). The npBAF complex is essential for the self-renewal\/proliferative capacity of the multipotent neural stem cells. The nBAF complex along with CREST plays a role regulating the activity of genes essential for dendrite growth. ACTL6B\/BAF53B is not essential for assembly of the nBAF complex but is required for targeting the complex and CREST to the promoter of genes essential for dendritic growth. Essential for neuronal maturation and dendrite development.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAssay and standard development for immunoassays or binding-based detection methods.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProtein–protein interaction studies (e.g., receptor–ligand or complex assembly) using purified components.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStructure–function analysis, including domain mapping or evaluation of sequence variants.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn quantitative assay development, changes in binding or activity readouts are typically interpreted relative to appropriate negative\/positive controls and, where possible, orthogonal assay formats that support the same conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eRecombinant constructs may represent a defined region (domain) rather than the full-length protein; interpret results in the context of the expressed region.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTag or fusion elements can aid purification and detection but may influence binding surfaces or oligomerization; consider tag controls when relevant.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSpecies and isoform differences can affect interaction partners and post-translational modifications; align experimental controls to the intended biological context.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eE. coli expression can limit eukaryotic post-translational modifications; for modification-dependent biology, interpret results accordingly.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB entry for O94805 — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/O94805\/entry - NCBI Gene search (ACTL6B) — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=ACTL6B - PubMed search (ACTL6B) — NCBI — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=ACTL6B - RCSB PDB search (ACTL6B) — RCSB PDB — https:\/\/www.rcsb.org\/search?query=ACTL6B - Reactome Pathway Browser — Reactome — https:\/\/reactome.org\/ --\u003e","brand":"CUSABIO TECHNOLOGY LLC","offers":[{"title":"1 mg","offer_id":53065312829805,"sku":"CSB-EP001237HU-1MG","price":2466.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ug","offer_id":53065477095789,"sku":"CSB-EP001237HU-100UG","price":729.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ug","offer_id":53065477128557,"sku":"CSB-EP001237HU-20UG","price":388.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/CSB-EP001237HU-SDS.jpg?v=1772476555","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/recombinant-human-actin-like-protein-6b-actl6b-bhp10510178","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
