Cytoskeleton社 Investigating MAPs and Tubulin?
Investigating MAPs and Tubulin? Microtubule Associated Proteins (MAPs) are proteins that interact with tubulin and microtubules to regulate their function and also to transport cargo. The well known MAPs MAP1 & 2 and Tau are expressed in CNS material and help stabilize microtubule structures. Cytoskeleton's BK029 kit is an effective and efficient tool for identification of novel and established MAPs.
Microtubule Binding Protein Spin-Down Assay Biochem Kit (Cat. # BK029) Product Uses: · To determine whether a protein or compound binds to microtubules. · To test various deletion mutants for their ability to still bind microtubules, then calculate their affinity for microtubules, and hence identify the microtubule binding site. · In the presence of a non-hydrolyzable analog of ATP (kinesins) or GTP (dynamin) extract these from cells or show their binding affinity when mutated. Above: MAP Spin-Down Assay using BK029. Microtubules were mixed with buffer (MT), MAP proteins (MT + MAPF) or BSA (MT +BSA) and MTs were pelleted by centrifugation at 100,000 x g. Supernatant (S) and Pellet (P) fractions were examined by SDS-PAGE. MAP proteins, but not BSA, bind to MTs and co-precipitate. MAP (MAPF) or BSA (BSA) proteins alone do not pellet.
