Anti-MLPH Antibody

Raised in rabbit against the melanophilin (MLPH) protein, this unconjugated polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com is supplied as a 100 µl vial at 1 mg/ml in PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol as a stabilizer. It is validated for western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows and recognizes the human, mouse, and rat forms of MLPH, the melanosome-associated linker protein that bridges Rab27A and myosin Va during peripheral melanosome transport in pigment-producing cells. Researchers studying Griscelli syndrome type 3 pigmentation defects, melanocyte differentiation, and intracellular vesicle movement rely on this reagent to map endogenous MLPH distribution in skin sections, retinal pigment epithelium, and melanoma-derived cell lines. Aliquot upon receipt and store at -20 °C to preserve activity, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles of the glycerol-containing formulation.
