The chimeric antibody retains its antigen-binding Fab regions from the original rabbit monoclonal antibody but contains a feline-derived Fc domain. When multiplexing, Fc-directed rabbit secondaries are required to detect rabbit-host primary antibodies. The parent antibody, MAP2 (D5G1) XP Rabbit mAb #8707, is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human MAP2 protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nMicrotubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) is a neuronal phosphoprotein that regulates the structure and stability of microtubules, neuronal morphogenesis, cytoskeleton dynamics, and organelle trafficking in axons and dendrites (1). Multiple MAP2 isoforms are expressed in neurons, including high molecular weight MAP2A and MAP2B (280 and 270 kDa), and low molecular weight MAP2C and MAP2D (70 and 75 kDa). Phosphorylation of MAP2 modulates its association with the cytoskeleton and is developmentally regulated. GSK-3 and p44\/42 MAP kinase phosphorylate MAP2 at Ser136, Thr1620, and Thr1623 (2,3). Phosphorylation at Thr1620\/1623 by GSK-3 inhibits MAP2 association with microtubules and microtubule stability (3).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nDKFZp686I2148; MAP-2; MAP2; MAP2A; MAP2B; MAP2C; microtubule associated protein 2; Microtubule-associated protein 2; MTAP2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Feline chimeric IgG1","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800292020393,"sku":"20616T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-20616t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
