Β-肌動蛋白
位於7號人類染色體的基因
β-肌動蛋白,人體內由ACTB基因編碼,是肌動蛋白的六種蛋白異構體之一。β-肌動蛋白是一種進化上高度保守的蛋白,與細胞的結構維持、移動,以及與所處環境之間的整合高度相關[6][7]。
在肌動蛋白的六種異構體中,β-肌動蛋白是兩種存在於肌肉組織之外的肌動蛋白之一(另一種是由ACTG1基因編碼的γ-肌動蛋白)[8]。
功能
β-肌動蛋白是構成微絲的蛋白之一,在細胞中有單體與多聚體(即聚合形成微絲的狀態)兩種存在狀態[9]。β-肌動蛋白與細胞的移動、結構維持等過程密切相關,過表達β-肌動蛋白會導致細胞形態出現異常[10],純合敲除β-肌動蛋白的編碼基因Actb則會導致小鼠胚胎致死。此外,β-肌動蛋白也是細胞基因調控網絡的中間因子之一[11]。
與臨床醫學的關係
有證據表明,β-肌動蛋白的編碼基因ACTB突變與瀰漫大B細胞淋巴瘤的發生有關[12]。此外,也存有關於β-肌動蛋白的編碼基因ACTB突變導致嚴重發育異常、耳聾和青少年發作性肌張力障礙等病徵的案例報告[13]。
應用
作為一種看家基因,因β-肌動蛋白在不同細胞之間的表達水平相對穩定,β-肌動蛋白常常在蛋白免疫印跡(Western Blotting)實驗中用作內參蛋白,用於半定性表示不同樣品之間總蛋白量的差異[14]。因為類似的原因,編碼β-肌動蛋白的ACTB基因也常常在qPCR實驗中被選為內參基因[15][16]。
