Western Blot: DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag Antibody (C.15200054) [NBP2-59146]

Western Blot: DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag Antibody (C.15200054) [NBP2-59146]

Western Blot: DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag Antibody (C.15200054) [NBP2-59146] - Analysis of 40 ug whole cell extracts from HeLa cells transfected with either Ty1-tagged MBD1 (lanes 1 and 3) or Ty1-tagged MBD2 (lane 2 and 4). The WB was performed with the DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag Antibody (C.15200054) [NBP2-59146] diluted 1:1000 in TBS-Tween containing 5% skimmed milk (lane 1 and 2) or with an MBD1 antibody (lane 3) or an MBD2 antibody (lane 4). The position of the Ty1-tagged MBD1 and Ty1-tagged MBD2 are shown on the right, the marker (kDa) is shown on the left.
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation: DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag Antibody (C.15200054) [NBP2-59146] - Results obtained with the [NBP2-59146]. ChIP assays were performed using Plasmodium falciparium cells stably expressing Ty1-H2A (blue bars) and wild type Plasmodium falciparium cells (brown bars). Primer pairs were used for active genes, inactive genes, and variable genes. Sheared chromatin from 1x10^6 cells and 2 ug of antibody against Ty1 were used per ChIP experiment.

Background: DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag

Fusion proteins, in which a known peptide such as a His-Tag, GST-Tag, or DYKDDDDK (FLAG(R)) is cloned with the target of interest, were developed to simplify protein isolation. Since specific antibodies may not be available against the protein of interest, epitope tag antibodies are commonly used to detect protein expression.

The epitope tag, DYKDDDDK, is comprised of an eight amino acid sequence derived from the gene-10 product from bacteriophage T7 and contains an enterokinase-cleavage site (1). Its hydrophilic nature and short peptide sequence reduce possible interference with protein expression, post-translational modifications, protein interactions, and protein function (2). The DYKDDDDK (FLAG(R)) epitope tag can either be fused to the N-terminus, C-terminus, or placed at an internal position of the target protein, facilitating characterization of the protein of interest using immunodetection methods. Compared to the standard DYKDDDDK epitope tag antibody, the rat monoclonal DYKDDDDK Epitope Tag antibody (clone L5) is 2-8 times more sensitive (3).
