Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Monoclonal Anti-Maltose Binding Protein (MBP) (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma MBP-17 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a purified recombinant MBP fusion protein._x000D_ The antibody recognizes native as well as denatured-reduced forms of purified MBP and MBP fusion proteins._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ Purified, recombinant MBP fusion protein._x000D_ Application_x000D_ Monoclonal Anti-Maltose Binding Protein antibody produced in mouse has been used in:_x000D_ • immunoblotting_x000D_ • dot blot_x000D_ • luminometric immunoassay_x000D_ • enzyme linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA)_x000D_ Monoclonal Anti-Maltose Binding Protein antibody produced in mouse was used in agarose binding assay for the detection of activation-induced cytidine deaminase-MBP complex._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ Maltose binding protein (MBP) is a periplasmic binding protein that is important for nutrient uptake and chemotaxis of Escherichia coli._x000D_ Maltose binding protein (MBP) tag creates a stable fusion product, that does not appear to interfere with the bioactivity of the protein or with the biodistribution of the MBP tagged product. It facilitates the detection, isolation and purification of the proteins.
