Monoclonal Anti-Neurofilament 160 antibody produced in mouse

产品说明

一般描述

Neurofilaments belong to the intermediate filament family and are expressed mainly in cells or tissues of neuronal origin. It is crucial for proper radial growth of axons.
Monoclonal Anti-Neurofilament 160 (mouse IgG1 iso-type) is produced by the fusion mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. Neurofilaments are composed of three sub-units- light NFL protein, medium NFM protein, heavy NFH protein. Along with there two other intermediate filaments are present α-internexin and peripherin. Neurofilaments are phosphoproteins.

特异性

Mouse monoclonal anti-neurofilament 160 antibody reacts specifically with neurofilaments of molecular weight 160,000 but does not cross react with other intermediate filament proteins.

免疫原

neurofilaments from pig spinal cord.

应用

Monoclonal anti-neurofilament 160 antibody (diluted 1: 5000) can be used as internal loading controls in immunoblotting. It can also be used in whole-mount immunohistochemistry and western blot. Monoclonal anti-neurofilament 160 antibodies can be used for localization of neurofilaments of molecular weight 160,000 in cultured cells or tissues preparation.

生化/生理作用

Neurofilaments play a role in axonal calibre as they help in movement of an impulse down the axon. Their activity depends on phosphorylation of neurofilaments.Mutations of neurofilaments causes Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. Accumulation of neurofilaments has been observed in many human neurological diseases like Alzheimer′s disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, diabetic neuropathy, and giant axonal neuropathy.
