Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is a transmembrane proteins that is a component of myelin in the central and peripheral nervous system.1 It promotes neurite outgrowth during the embryonic development, but inhibits axonal regeneration in the adult nervous system.2 MAG mediates cell-cell interactions between myelinating glial cells and neurons.3 MAG as an important component of the myelin-derived inhibition of nerve regeneration. The acute loss of MAG function can promote significant axon growth across a site of CNS nerve damage.4

IHC (NBF/Par.): This antibody should give satisfactory staining results when used at a concentration of 5-15 µg/mL. The recommended secondary antibody for IHC is PN:A106. For chromogenic detection with high signal and low background use PN:D100 or PN:K107.

Goat Anti-Rat Myelin-Associated Glycoprotein (MAG) recognizes Rat MAG. This antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody was purified using a proprietary chromatographic technique that includes covalently immobilizing the antigen proteins or peptides to agarose based beads. This purification method enhances specificity, reduces nonspecific binding of extraneous IgG and provides you with the most reliable reagent available for your early discovery research.

This biotinylated antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody has been 0.2 µm filtered and lyophilized from modified Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (1X PBS) pH 7.2 – 7.3 containing 50 µg of bovine serum albumin per µg of antibody with no calcium, magnesium, or preservatives present.

Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change.
