Other Names | Microtubule-associated protein 2, MAP-2, MAP2 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP3591a was selected from the region of human Phospho-MAP2-pY592. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | MAP2 |
---|---|
Function | The exact function of MAP2 is unknown but MAPs may stabilize the microtubules against depolymerization. They also seem to have a stiffening effect on microtubules. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection, dendrite {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20357} |

Background
MAP2 is 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 protein 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.
