MYH7 Antibody (6D592) is a mouse monoclonal IgM antibody that detects myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7) in mouse, rat, human, rabbit, and chicken samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and immunofluorescence (IF). MYH7 is a critical component of the muscle myosin family, primarily expressed in cardiac and slow-twitch skeletal muscle, where MYH7 plays a vital role in muscle contraction and overall cardiac function. The structure of MYH7 consists of a long coiled-coil tail and a globular head, which allows MYH7 to interact with actin filaments to facilitate muscle contraction. This structural configuration enables the conversion of chemical energy from ATP hydrolysis into mechanical work and ensures proper functioning of heart and skeletal muscles. Mutations in the MYH7 gene have been linked to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a condition that can lead to serious heart complications, underscoring the significance of MYH7 in both health and disease. Anti-MYH7 antibody (6D592) is an essential tool for researchers studying muscle biology and related pathologies, providing reliable detection and characterization of this crucial protein.
