Anti-Neurofilament 200 (Phos and Non-Phos) antibody, Mouse monoclonal，100UL，SAB4200705-100UL，Sigma

General description

Monoclonal Anti-Neurofilament 200 (phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated) (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the N52 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. Neurofilament 200 also known as Neurofilament heavy polypeptide (H-subunit) and is 200 kDa.
Neurofilament 200 is encoded by the gene located at human chromosome 22q12.2.

Application

Anti-Neurofilament 200 (Phos and Non-Phos) antibody has been used in

• immunoblotting
• immunofluorescence
• immunohistochemistry

Biochem/physiol Actions

Monoclonal Anti-Neurofilament 200 (Phos. and NonPhos.) also known as Neurofilament-H or Heavy subunit, specifically recognizes an epitope on the C-terminal tail domain of Neurofilament 200, which is present on both the phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated forms of this glycoprotein. The antibody shows reactivity with neurofilaments in the central and peripheral nervous systems from human , pig, mouse, rat, monkey, feline and bovine origin.
Mutation in the NEFH gene leads to the development of autosomal dominant axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT2cc).
Neurofilament 200 has an important function in axonal transport, axonal plasticity and maintaining the structure of neuronal cytoskeleton. Defects in Neurofilament 200 are a cause of susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and these accumulations are a hallmark of pathological lesion.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide as a preservative.

Preparation Note

For continuous use, store at 2-8°C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
