target relevance
As a key component of the cytoskeleton in neurons, MAP2 plays a critical role in regulating microtubule dynamics and stabilizing neuronal processes such as dendrites and axons. Its abundant presence in these structures makes it an essential factor in establishing and maintaining the intricate neuronal morphology required for proper cell function and connectivity in the nervous system. Researchers have focused on studying MAP2 to gain deeper insights into neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and neurodegenerative diseases, as its expression and phosphorylation are closely associated with synaptic maturation and neuronal plasticity.

As a cell marker, MAP2 serves as an invaluable marker for identifying neuronal differentiation and assessing neuronal damage or degeneration. This antibody recognizes MAP2 in neuronal cells and can be used as a cell marker antibody when used with a suitable secondary antibody.

Gene names
MAP2,MAP2
Mass
199526Da
Function
The exact function of MAP2 is unknown but MAPs may stabilize the microtubules against depolymerization. They also seem to have a stiffening effect on microtubules.
Subellular location
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton Cell projection, dendrite
Structure
Interacts with KNDC1 (via KIND2); the interaction enhances MAP2 phosphorylation and localizes KNDC1 to dendrites. Interacts with DPYSL5 (PubMed:33894126).
Post-translational modification
Phosphorylated at serine residues in K-X-G-S motifs by MAP/microtubule affinity-regulating kinase (MARK1 or MARK2), causing detachment from microtubules, and their disassembly (By similarity). Isoform 2 is probably phosphorylated by PKA at Ser-323, Ser-354 and Ser-386 and by FYN at Tyr-67. The interaction with KNDC1 enhances MAP2 threonine phosphorylation (By similarity).

Data

ICC/IF-image-mouse-anti-MAP2-monoclonal-antibody-5H11-1367
Immunofluorescent analysis of rat hippocampus section stained with mouse mAb to MAP2, 1367, dilution 1:5,000 in green, and costained with rabbit pAb to alpha-internexin dilution 1:2,000 in red. Following transcardial perfusion of rat with 4% paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45µM, and free-floating sections were stained with above antibodies. The 1367 antibody labels MAP2 protein in the perikarya and dendrites of the most neurons, and the alpha-internexin antibody selectively stains axons and dendrites of neuronal cells.
IHC-image-mouse-anti-MAP2-monoclonal-antibody-5H11-1367
Chromogenic Immunostaining of a formalin fixed paraffin embedded human brain cortex section with mouse mAb to MAP2, 1367, dilution 1:5,000, detected with DAB (brown) using the Vector Labs ImmPRESS method and reagents with citra buffer retrieval. Hematoxylin (blue) was used as the counterstain. 367 strongly labels neurons, neuronal projections, and synapses. This antibody performs well in testing with 4% PFA fixed or standard NBF fixed rat and human tissue but does not stain long term NBF fixed material effectively. Due to its strong staining profile and ability to stain human tissue, 1367 is our recommended clone for MAP2 immunostaining. Mouse select image for larger view.

Chromogenic immunostaining of a 4% PFA fixed paraffin embedded rat cerebellum section with mouse mAb to MAP2, 1367, dilution 1:5,000, detected in DAB (brown) following the ImmPress method with citra buffer retrieval. Hematoxylin (blue) was used as the counterstain. In the cerebellum, 1367 strongly labels neurons, neuronal projections, and synapses. This antibody performs well in testing with 4% PFA fixed or standard NBF fixed rat and human tissue but does not stain long term NBF fixed material effectively. Due to its strong staining profile and ability to stain human tissue, 1367 is our recommended clone for MAP2 immunostaining. Mouse select image for larger view.

Following transcardial perfusion of rat with 4% paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45 µM, and free-floating sections were stained with above antibodies. The 367 antibody labels MAP2 protein in the perikarya and dendrites of the most neurons, particularly in granular cell and molecular layers of the cerebellum, while the alpha-internexin antibody selectively stains axons and dendrites of neuronal cells.

WB-image-mouse-anti-MAP2-monoclonal-antibody-5H11-1367
Western blot analysis of different tissue lysates using mouse mAb to MAP2A/B, 1367, dilution 1:10,000 in green: [1] protein standard (red), [2] adult rat whole brain, [2] embryonic (E20) rat brain, [4] adult rat spinal cord, and [5] adult mouse brain lysate. A band at about 280 kDa corresponds to full length MAP2a and MAP2B protein. MAP2A/B is expressed heavily in adult brain particularly in cortical regions, but is a more minor component of spinal cord and almost absent from the embryonic brain sample. Note that since the epitope for this antibody in within the projection domain found only in MAP2A and MAP2B, and so the antibody does not bind to the lower molecular weight MAP2C and MAP2D isoforms which lack this region.
