Question 1:  What other MAPs are in your MAPF product?

Answer 1:  Cytoskeleton's microtubule-associated protein fraction (Cat. # MAPF) contains approximately 60% MAP2, 10% MAP1, 40% tau proteins and minor contributions from other MAPs.

Question 2:  Is your Tau product phosphorylated?

Answer 2:  Tau is a phosphoprotein that has at least 80 in vitro phosphorylation sites.  Tau proteins have molecular weights between 40-70 kDa and are
know to undergo extensive post-translational modification.  Cytoskeleton's purified tau protein from bovine brain (Cat. # TA01) is a mixture of phosphorylated and unphosphorylated tau.
