Overview
MBP Antibody / Myelin basic protein is an antibody targeting MBP. Host: Mouse. Monoclonal. Clone: rMBP/9431. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P, WB.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: MBP.
- Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 1-100 from human Myelin basic protein was used as the immunogen for the MBP antibody..
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Cell membrane, Myelin membrane.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the second most abundant protein in central nervous system (CNS) myelin: it comprises 30% of the total protein and about 10% of the dry weight of myelin. 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.
Common research applications
- WB: relative abundance and band pattern assessment using appropriate controls.
- IHC: tissue distribution assessment; interpret with matched controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
