Description | This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the microtubule-associated protein family. The proteins of this family are thought to be involved in microtubule assembly, which is an essential step in neurogenesis. The products of similar genes in rat and mouse are neuron-specific cytoskeletal proteins that are enriched in dentrites, implicating a role in determining and stabilizing dentritic shape during neuron development. A number of alternatively spliced variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. |
Immunogen | Purified recombinant fragment of human MAP2 (AA: 24-123) expressed in E. Coli. |

Function | The exact function of MAP2 is unknown but MAPs may stabilize the microtubules against depolymerization. They also seem to have a stiffening effect on microtubules. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection, dendrite {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20357} |
