Microtubule Associated Protein 2 (MAP2) Antibody

Primary Antibodies

Aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the microtubule-associated protein family. The proteins of this family are thought to be involved in microtubule assembly, which is an essential step in neurogenesis. The exact function of this gene is still unknown. The products of similar genes in rat and mouse are neuron-specific cytoskeletal proteins that are enriched in dentrites, implicating a role in determining and stabilizing dentritic shape during neuron development. A number of alternatively spliced variants of this gene have been described, but the full length nature of some of them has not been determined.
