A lattice regularized Lax operator for the non-ultralocal modified Korteweg de Vries (mKdV) equation is proposed at the quantum level with the basic operators satisfying a q-deformed braided algebra. From the associated quantum R and Z-matrices the exact integrability of the model is proved through the braided quantum Yang-Baxter equation which is a suitably generalized equation for the non-ultralocal models. Using the algebraic Bethe ansatz the eigenvalue problem of the quantum mKdV model is exactly solved and its connection with the spin-1/2 XXZ chain is established, facilitating the investigation of the corresponding conformal properties.
