| Description | MAPT Human Recombinant fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at N-terminus produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 401 amino acids (1-381 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 41.8kDa. The NCBI Accession No. is EAW93573.1.The MAPT is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | The MAPT solution (0.5 mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl Buffer (pH 7.5), 1mM DTT and 20% Glycerol. |
| Protein Background | Microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT or Tau) is a protein that stabilizes microtubules. MAPT is abundant in neurons in the central nervous system and is less common elsewhere. When MAPT is defective, and no longer stabilizes microtubules properly, it can result in dementias, such as Alzheimer’s disease. |
| Purity | Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
| Stability | MAPT should be stored desiccated below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Synonyms | Microtubule-associated protein tau, isoform CRA_f, Neurofibrillary tangle protein, Paired helical filament-tau, PHF-tau, MAPT, MAPTL, MTBT1, TAU, MSTD, PPND, DDPAC, MTBT2, FTDP-17, FLJ31424, MGC138549. |
