The MAP1A Polyclonal Antibody (PAC018950) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the microtubule-associated protein 1A (MAP1A), a key player in neuronal development and function. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific to human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications.MAP1A is known to be involved in microtubule stabilization and organization within neurons, essential for processes such as axonal transport and synaptic plasticity. Dysregulation of MAP1A has been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, making it a target of interest for researchers in the field of neuroscience.
By using the MAP1A Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can detect and analyze the expression of MAP1A in various cell types, allowing for a better understanding of its role in neuronal development and potential implications in neurodegenerative diseases. This antibody is a valuable tool for advancing research in neuroscience and identifying potential therapeutic targets for neurodegenerative disorders.

Background:
This gene encodes 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 product of this gene is a precursor polypeptide that presumably undergoes proteolytic processing to generate the final MAP1A heavy chain and LC2 light chain. Expression of this gene is almost exclusively in the brain. Studies of the rat microtubule-associated protein 1A gene suggested a role in early events of spinal cord development.
Synonyms:
