ALFA antibody super-tight - N1582

The ALFA tag is a novel peptide tag

This product was developed by   

NanoTag-Biotechnologies

The ALFA-tag is a novel, rationally designed epitope tag (SRLEEELRRRLTE) that forms a small and stable α-helix that is functional irrespective of its position on the target protein in prokaryotic and eukaryotic hosts. Different ALFA-tag based products like FluoTags, polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies and Selector resins are available.

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Clone 1G5
Subtype IgG1
Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to: SRLEEELRRRLTE (UniProt Id: not defined)
Specificity Specific for ALFA-tag
Remarks

This antibody is a chimeric construct consisting of the anti-ALFA single-domain antibody 1G5 genetically fused to mouse IgG1 Fc domain. It can be used in combination with standard anti-mouse secondary reagents binding the IgG Fc-domain.

Background

The ALFA-tag is a novel, rationally designed epitope tag (SRLEEELRRRLTE) that forms a small and stable α-helix that is functional irrespective of its position on the target protein in prokaryotic and eukaryotic hosts.
The ALFA-tag has the broadest spectrum of applications in life sciences compared to any other tag.
