Product Name 

Myelin Basic Protein antibody [12] - Oligodendrocyte Marker

 

See all Myelin Basic Protein antibodies (23)...

Product type 

Primary antibodies

Description 

Rat monoclonal [12] to Myelin Basic Protein - Oligodendrocyte Marker

Immunogen 

Full length protein (Cow).

Reacts with 
(species key)

Hu, Ms, Rat, Cow, Gpig, Pig, Rb, Shp

Specificity 

The antibody reacts weakly with peptides ending in the Phe 91 where the 91-92 Phe-Phe bond is broken. Synthetic peptide 82-99 reacts very well, as does intact MBP. Further epitope analysis indicates binding to a region defined by amino acids 82-87 (DENPVV). Mapped by Geyson method to DENPW method.

Epitope 

Amino acids 82-87 (DENPVV).

Tested applications 
(see key)

ELISA, IHC (PFA fixed), IHC-FoFr, IHC-Fr, IHC-P, RIA, WB

Relevance 

The classic group of Myelin basic protein (MBP) isoforms (isoforms 4 to 14) are with PLP the most abundant protein components of the myelin membrane in the CNS. They have a role in both its formation and stabilization. The smaller isoforms might have an important role in remyelination of denuded axons in multiple sclerosis. The non classic group of MBP isoforms (isoforms 1 to 3/Golli MBPs) may preferentially have a role in the early developing brain long before myelination, maybe as components of transcriptional complexes, and may also be involved in signaling pathways in T cells and neural cells. Differential splicing events combined to optional posttranslational modifications give a wide spectrum of isomers, each of them having maybe a specialized function.
