General description
MAP1b is a microtubule associated protein that interacts with actin filaments. MAP1b regulates microtubule stabilization and the development of axons. It may also act as a scaffolding protein Addition of antibody to microtubule proteins before polymerization in immunoassays results in abnormally short (but otherwise morphologically normal) microtubules. Immunohistochemical staining of brain tissue with the product shows selective labeling of dendritic trees throughout the brain. Monoclonal Anti-MAP1b does not react with tubulin of other microtubule associated proteins.
Monoclonal Anti-MAP1b (MAP5) (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. Microtubule-associated protein (MAP1B) is the major microtubule associated protein in developing brain which changes its expression during development. In the new born rat brain, it is a major component of microtubules but in the adult its level is ten-fold lower.
Specificity
Monoclonal Anti-MAP1b antibody is specific for MAP1b in humans, mice, rats, bovines, cats, hamsters and chickens. The antibody does not cross-react with other MAPs or tubulin. Addition of the antibody to microtubule proteins before polymerization results in abnormally short (but otherwise morphologically normal) microtubules. In immunohistochemical staining of brain tissue, the antibody shows selective labeling of neurons with stronger staining of axons, dendrites and cell bodies.
Immunogen
rat brain microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs)
Application
Monoclonal Anti-MAP1b antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
- immunohistochemistry
- immunostaining
- fluorescence microscopy
Biochem/physiol Actions
Microtubule-associated protein (MAP1B) is the first MAP to appear in growing axons during development as it is present from the first emergence of the nascent axon from the cell body. Monoclonal Anti-MAP1b may be used to study MAP expression and cytological localization both in tissues and cell lines, under different developmental and environmental circumstances.

The influence on microtubule assembly in vitro of monoclonal antibodies against microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) was studied. Light scattering was used for measuring net polymer formation and electron microscopy for determining the influence of antibodies on microtubule morphology. Control experiments showed
