Description
Background: Epitope tags have application in the labeling, isolation and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, Immunoprecipitation and immunostaining techniques. Epitope tags can be used, by affinity chromatography, to separate recombinant, overexpressed protein from wild-type protein expressed by the host organism. Due its small size the protein's biochemical properties seem not to be affected by the tag protein.Human influenza hemagglutinin (HA) is a surface glycoprotein required for the infectivity of human by the virus. The HA tag corresponds to the amino acids 98-106 (YPYDVPDYA) of the HA protein. It has been extensively used as a general epitope tag in expression vectors. Many recombinant proteins have been engineered to express the HA tag.
Description: A highly specific and sensitive antibody against the HA protein and any HA-tagged fusion proteins. The antibody was raised against YPYDVPDYA (HA) synthetic peptide conjugated to KLH
