Background Information
MBP belongs to the myelin basic protein family. The classic group of MBP isoforms (isoform 4-isoform 14) are the most abundant protein components of the myelin membrane in the CNS. They have a role in both its formation and stabilization. The smaller isoforms might have an important role in remyelination of denuded axons in multiple sclerosis. The non-classic group of MBP isoforms (isoform 1-isoform 3/Golli-MBPs) may preferentially have a role in the early developing brain long before myelination, maybe as components of transcriptional complexes, and may also be involved in signaling pathways in T-cells and neural cells. MBP has six isoforms. Catalog#10458-1-AP is capable of recognizing multiple isoforms of MBP.

Reviews
What customers say
All three reviews rated this MBP antibody 5 stars. Users reported successful performance in Western Blot and Immunofluorescence across human DRG tissue, mouse optic nerve, and rat brain. Key highlights include robust signal intensity, clear bands at expected isoform sizes, very low background with minimal off-target binding, and strong recognition of recombinant myelin protein. Recommended dilutions ranged from 1:200 (IF) to 1:5000 (WB). Overall, reviewers found the antibody reliable and specific for detecting myelin basic protein in both tissue and lysate applications.

Samantha (Verified Customer) (08-29-2025) | Used in a Western Blot and detected myelin in human dorsal root ganglia and bound to recombinant myelin protein
|
Kenzo (Verified Customer) (08-16-2023) | This MBP antibody worked well and generated robust immunofluorescence signals on mouse optic nerve sections.
|
Rebecca (Verified Customer) (02-10-2022) | Western performed on Biorad MiniPROTEAN 4-15% TGX precast gels and Precision Plus All Blue Protein Ladder and 4x Laemmli Sample Buffer. Blocking performed for 1h at room temperature using 5%BLOTTO. Primary antibody dilution was performed overnight at 4°C in 5%BLOTTO/0.05%Tween. Secondary antibody was LiCOR IRDye® 680RD Donkey anti-Mouse IgG (H + L) at 1:20000 dilution in PBS-Tween-SDS as per manufacturers instructions for 2h at room temperature. Blot showed clear bands of the expected isoform sizes with very low-none background/off target binding.
