MBP Antibody (201) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b antibody that detects myelin basic protein (MBP) in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry. MBP plays a crucial role in the formation and maintenance of the myelin sheath, which insulates nerve fibers and facilitates efficient signal transmission in the central nervous system. MBP′s structure is characterized by its highly basic nature, allowing interaction with negatively charged lipids in the myelin membrane, thereby stabilizing the myelin sheath. This structural integrity is vital for proper neuronal function, as disruptions in myelin can lead to severe neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis. Furthermore, MBP undergoes post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation, which are essential for regulating function and stability during myelinogenesis and in response to neuronal activity. Anti-MBP antibody (201) is an invaluable tool for researchers studying myelin-related processes and the underlying mechanisms of demyelinating diseases.

Can sc-66064: MBP (201) monoclonal antibody be used to stain formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections?

Asked by: Cweed
Thank you for your question. Yes, sc-66064: MBP (201) is recommended for use in IHC with paraffin-embedded sections. We recommend performing antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) and heat. The full protocol can be found here: https://www.scbt.com/scbt/resources/protocols/immunoperoxidase-staining
