TEV-cut site antibody - 265 003CpH

TEV is a cysteine protease frequently used in biochemistry

pH-sensitive probe fluorescent only under acidic conditions

Rabbit polyclonal purified antibody
Cat. No.: 265 003CpH
Amount: 50 µg
Price: $480.00
Cat. No. 265 003CpH 50 µg specific antibody, lyophilized. Affinity purified with the immunogen, fluorescence-labeled with CypHer5E.

CypHer5E® is a pH-sensitive dye, fluorescent only after antibody internalization at the acidic pH of the lumen of the synaptic vesicle. CypHer5E® can be detected with the filter sets for Cy5®.

CypHer5E®: λex 647 nm / λem 667 nm

Albumin was added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 50 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Either add 1:1 (v/v) glycerol, then aliquot and store at -20°C until use, or store aliquots at -80°C without additives.
Reconstitute immediately upon receipt! Avoid bright light when working with the antibody to minimize photo bleeching of the fluorescent dye.
Applications
 
WB: N/A
IP: N/A
ICC: 1 : 500 gallery  
IHC: not tested yet
IHC-P: not tested yet

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.

Label CypHer5E
Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to AA 1 to 6 from TEV-cut site
Specificity TEV-cut protease site is recognized with very strong preference.
Remarks

Excess of extracellular membrane bound SynaptoPhluorin is often removed by TEV protease digestion. This antibody recognizes the neoepitopes generated by TEV cleavage and can be used for membrane internalization studies. The pH sensitive dye regaines its fluorescence after the reacidification of the synaptic vesicle lumen.

Background
TEV is a highly specific cysteine protease derived from Tobacco Etch Virus (TEV). The optimum recognition site for this enzyme is the sequence (ENLYFQ(G/S)) and cleavage occurs between the Q and G/S residues leaving a free carboxy-terminus.
