Physical form

Ascites. Liquid containing 15mM sodium azide.

Specificity

Reacts specifically with MAP1B (MAP5) by immunoblot. Shows selective staining of dendritic trees throughout the brain. No cross-reactivity observed to other MAPs or tubulin.

Monoclonal Anti-MAP1b is immunospecific for MAP1b (also known as MAP5, MAPIX or MAP1.2; Riederer et al., 1986; Tucker et al., 1988) as determined by an immunoblot assay. Addition of antibody to microtubule proteins before polymerization results in abnormally short (but otherwise morphologically normal) microtubules.

Storage and Stability

Maintain at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 12 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
