Product DescriptionMouse anti-Microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) Recombinant Antibody (Unconjugated), suitable for ICC, EM.
Application(s)EM, ICC
Application DetailsThis antibody binds to tau in a phosphorylation independent manner. Tau proteins are abundant in the central nervous system and stabilize micrtubules. Immuno-staining can be affected by different fixation methods (see LoPresti et al. 1995).
TargetMicrotubule-associated protein tau (MAPT)
SpecificityThis antibody binds to sequence 210-241 of tau protein.
