MBP (4-14), Bovine / MBP (3-13), Mouse

Myelin basic protein (MBP) is a major structural component of CNS and peripheral myelin. This short basic fragment corresponds to bovine MBP residues 4-14 and mouse MBP residues 3-13 and provides a defined epitope for autoimmune and myelin-antigen studies.

• experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis / neuritis
• multiple-sclerosis and demyelination research
• myelin epitope mapping
• T-cell and antibody recognition studies

Species assignment, residue boundaries, substitutions, terminal caps and affinity labels are part of the exact reagent identity. Use the matching species/epitope form when reproducing published autoimmune-myelin models.
