Abstract
Tropomyosin, an actin-binding protein, can regulate the interaction between
actin and myosin. A kind of tropomyosin was identified and localized by an
ti-smooth muscle tropomyosin polyclonal antibody. On immunoblotting of the
crude extract of lily pollen, antibody Labels a polypeptide of approximatel
y 64 kD. Immuno-fluorescence microscopy shows that the antibody yields nume
rous fluorescent spots throughout the whole length of pollen tube.
