Description
This antibody is specific to MAP2a and MAP2b, and will not cross-react with MAP1, MAP5, tubulin or tau. This clone reacts with dendrites and cell bodies of neurons but not with the neuronal processes. It does not react with the low MW form (70 kDa, MAP2c). The epitope has been mapped to aa 997-1332. The molecular weight of the doublet is ~280 kDa. For IHC staining, formalin-fixed tissues must be boiled in a 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at room temperature for 20 min. Recommened positive controls include human glioblastoma T98G cells or brain tissue.
