Anti-MAP7

Protein function: Microtubule-stabilizing protein that may play an important role during reorganization of microtubules during polarization and differentiation of epithelial cells. Associates with microtubules in a dynamic manner. May play a role in the formation of intercellular contacts. Colocalization with TRPV4 results in the redistribution of TRPV4 toward the membrane and may link cytoskeletal microfilaments. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:1000-2000. Cellular localization: Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Basolateral cell membrane. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Colocalized on microtubules. An intracellular redistribution is triggered during induction of keratinocyte terminal differentiation from microtubules with a perinuclear localization to cortical microtubules organized in spike-like bundles facing intercellular contacts.
