This antibody was purified from whole rabbit serum prepared by repeated immunizations with the 9-aa epitope tag peptide YPYDVPDYA (114-122) from hemagglutinin influenza conjugated to KLH using maleimide. A residue of cysteine was added to the carboxy terminal end to facilitate coupling.

Product Specific Information

Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.

This affinity purified antibody is directed against the HA motif and is useful in determining its presence in various assays. This polyclonal anti-HA tag antibody detects over-expressed proteins containing the HA epitope tag. To date, this antibody has reacted with all HA-tagged proteins tested. In western blotting of bacterial extracts, the antibody does not cross-react with endogenous proteins.

Target Information

HA Tag (hemagglutinin tag) is an epitope tag that provides a method to localize gene products in a variety of cell types, study the topology of proteins and protein complexes, identify associated proteins, and characterize newly identified, low abundance or poorly immunogenic proteins when protein specific antibodies are not available. HA (hemagglutinin) is a surface glycoprotein derived from influenza hemagglutinin, and is commonly expressed as a tag in conjunction with proteins to aid in identification and purification of the tagged protein for functional analysis. HA tag antibodies can be used to facilitate protein detection or co-immunopreciptation of tagged proteins.
