It is the only structural protein found so far to be essential for formation of CNS myelin, and has been called the executive molecule of myelin. MBP can interact with a number of polyanionic proteins including actin, tubulin, calmodulin, and clathrin, and negatively charged lipids, and acquires structure on binding to them. It may act as a membrane actin-binding protein, which might allow it to participate in transmission of extracellular signals to the cytoskeleton in oligodendrocytes and tight junctions in myelin. MBP may be applicable as a marker for oligodendrogliomas. MBP\/4272 recognizes an epitope in the 119-131 region of MBP, useful in clinical diagnosis to detect MBP levels in human, rat and cow MBP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis anti-MBP antibody is supplied as Purified (Mouse, Monoclonal (mouse origin), clone MBP\/4272, Mouse IgG1, Unconjugated) and is designed to support common target-detection workflows after the on-page specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey elements and design rationale\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTarget:\u003c\/strong\u003e MBP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocalization:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cell surface, cytoplasm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies reactivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Human\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications (listed):\u003c\/strong\u003e WB, IHC-P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConjugate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unconjugated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClone and antibody class:\u003c\/strong\u003e Monoclonal (mouse origin), clone MBP\/4272, Mouse IgG1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause antibody performance can depend on epitope context, sample preparation, and biological state, interpret signals using appropriate controls and orthogonal evidence when possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBiological background\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMBP is referenced in public gene\/protein resources (e.g., UniProt and NCBI Gene), which provide curated names\/synonyms, protein features, and pathway context.
