Description | This affinity-purified antibody is directed against V5 motif and is useful in determining its presence in various assays. This polyclonal anti-V5-tag antibody detects over-expressed proteins containing the V5 epitope tag. To date this antibody has reacted with all V5 tagged proteins tested so far. In western blotting of bacterial extracts the antibody does not cross-react with endogenous proteins. The antibody recognizes the V5-epitope tag (GKPIPNPLLGLDST) fused to either the carboxy- terminal end of targeted proteins in transfected or transformed cells. Although not yet tested, expect reactivity with recombinant proteins prepared with the V5-epitope tag fused to the amino terminal end as well. Epitope tags are short peptide sequences that are easily recognized by tag-specific antibodies. Due to their small size, epitope tags do not affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties. Most often sequences encoding the epitope tag are included with target DNA at the time of cloning to produce fusion proteins containing the epitope tag sequence. This allows anti-epitope tag antibodies to serve as universal detection reagents for any tag containing protein produced by recombinant means. This means that anti-epitope tag antibodies are a useful alternative to generating specific antibodies to identify, immunoprecipitate or immunoaffinity purify a recombinant protein. The anti-epitope tag antibody is usually functional in a variety of antibody-dependent experimental procedures. Expression vectors producing epitope tag fusion proteins are available for a variety of host expression systems including bacteria, yeast, insect and mammalian cells. Rockland Immunochemicals produces anti-epitope tag antibodies against many common epitope tags including Myc, GST, GFP, 6X His, MBP, FLAG, HA and V5. Rockland Immunochemicals also produces antibodies to other tags including FITC, Rhodamine (TRITC), DNP and biotin. |
