Target description
Myelin-associated glycoprotein (Siglec-4a, MAG) is encoded by the MAG (also known as GMA) gene (Gene ID: 4099) in chicken. MAG is a single-pass type I membrane protein that is expressed in myelin-forming cells when oligodendrites initiate contact with axons. It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-19), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form that contains an extracellular domain (aa 20-516), a transmembrane domain (aa 517-536), and a cytoplasmic domain (aa 518-626). MAG is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that is found in both peripheral and CNS myelin, where it plays a role in the formation and maintenance of myelin sheath. It stabilizes contacts between myelinating axons and glial processes. It also participates in the formation of morphologically intact myelin sheath that results in periaxonal cytoplasmic collar of Schwann cells and compact myelin structure of oligodentrocytes. MAG is also considered to be important in maintenance of myelin with aging. MAG protects motoneurons against apoptosis and injury that is mediated via its interaction with neuronal reticulon receptor 4R (RTN4R) and Reticulon-4 receptor-like 2 protein (RTN4RL2). Three isoforms of MAG protein have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form
Purified recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.
Reconstitution
300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.
Storage and Stability
Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
