Description
MBP Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (CPAB0472)
The MBP Mouse Antibody (CPAB0472) is a valuable tool for researchers studying myelin basic protein (MBP), a major component of the myelin sheath in the central nervous system. This antibody, produced in mice, is highly specific and reliable for detecting MBP in various applications, including Western blotting and immunohistochemistry.MBP is essential for the formation and maintenance of the myelin sheath, which insulates nerve fibers and facilitates rapid signal transmission in the brain and spinal cord. Dysregulation of MBP expression or function can lead to neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis, making it an important target for investigation in neuroscience research.
With its high specificity and sensitivity, the MBP Mouse Antibody is an essential tool for studying the role of MBP in normal neurological function and disease pathology. Researchers can confidently use this antibody to explore MBP localization, expression levels, and interactions in both healthy and diseased tissues, advancing our understanding of neurological disorders and potential therapeutic targets.

Background: | Maltose Binding Protein (MBP) is a part of the maltose/maltodextrin system of Eschericia coli bacteria, which is responsible for the uptake and efficient catabolism of maltodextrins. It is a complex regulatory and transport system involving many proteins and protein complexes. Maltose binding protein MalE,MBP, is part of the maltodextrin transport system in E. coli. The maltodextrins diffuse through the LamB pore located in the outer membrane into the periplasm. The sugar is bound to MalE which prevents it to diffuse back outside. MalE passes the sugar to a complex of MalF and MalG in the cytoplasmic membrane where active tranport is mediated by the ATPase MalK. MBP molecular weight is 40,622 dalton. There are two domains in the protein with similar secondary structure (central pleated sheets are surrounded by helices) . The domains are connected by three bridges, between the domains is a deep groove in which the sugar is bound. All hydroxyl groups of the sugar are fixed by sidechains of the protein by hydrogen bonds. Some water molecules are part of the hydrogen bridge network. |
