The MAP1B and MAP1A genes each produce an mRNA that encodes a polyprotein. When cleaved, each polyprotein yields a single heavy chain and a single light chain, which become noncovalently associated. In previous work, it was found that the MAP1B light chains and heavy chains exist in a 2:1 ratio. Thr

MAP1B is a major cytoskeletal protein in growing axons and is strongly regulated during brain development. The present studies compare the expression of MAP1B mRNA, the protein, and its phosphorylated isoform in spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) with brain. In spinal cord and brain, MAP1B m
We isolated several cDNA fragments by immunoscreening a human cDNA library with our monoclonal antibody, BG5, that showed neuronal staining on human and rat brain sections. A 1,570 bp sequence of one cDNA fragment showed 75% homology to the rat microtubule-associated protein 1A (MAP1 A) cDNA sequenc
