GFP antibody (AA 1-246)

Catalog No. ABIN1043927

Product Details anti-GFP Antibody

Target: GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP))

Binding Specificity: AA 1-246

Reactivity: Aequorea victoria

Host: Chicken

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This GFP antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA

Specificity: Anti-GFP Antibody was prepared from egg yolks by immunoaffinity chromatography using Green Fluorescent Protein (Aequorea victoria) coupled to agarose beads followed by solid phase adsorption(s) to remove any unwanted reactivities.   Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Chicken Serum and purified and partially purified Green Fluorescent Protein (Aequorea victoria).  No reaction was observed against Human, Mouse or Rat serum proteins.

Characteristics: Anti-GFP is designed for immunofluorescence microscopy, fluorescence based plate assays (FLISA) and fluorescent western blotting. This product is also suitable for multiplex analysis, including multicolor imaging, utilizing various commercial platforms. Chicken IgY lacks the classic

Sterility: Sterile filtered

Immunogen: The immunogen is a Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) fusion protein corresponding to the full length amino acid sequence (246aa) derived from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria.
Immunogen Type: Recombinant Protein

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: Polyclonal anti-GFP is designed to detect GFP and its variants. This antibody can be used to detect GFP by ELISA (sandwich or capture) for the direct binding of antigen and recognizes wild type, recombinant and enhanced forms of GFP. Biotin conjugated polyclonal anti-GFP used in a sandwich ELISA is well suited to titrate GFP in solution using this antibody in combination with monoclonal anti-GFP (600-301-215) using either form of the antibody as the capture or detection antibodies. However, use the monoclonal form only for the detection of wild type or recombinant GFP as this form does not sufficiently detect 'enhanced' GFP. The detection antibody is typically conjugated to biotin and subsequently reacted with streptavidin conjugated HRP Fluorochrome conjugated polyclonal anti-GFP can be used to detect GFP by immunofluor-escence microscopy in prokaryotic (E.coli) and eukaryotic (CHO cells) expression systems and can detect GFP containing inserts. Significant amplification of signal is achieved using fluorochrome conjugated polyclonal anti-GFP relative to the fluorescence of GFP alone. For immunoblotting use either alkaline phosphatase or peroxidase conjugated polyclonal anti-GFP to detect GFP or GFP containing proteins on western blots.

Target Details for GFP

Target: GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP))

Alternative Name: GFP (GFP Products)

Synonyms: green fluorescent protein antibody, gfp antibody

Target Type: Viral Protein

Background: Anti-GFP is designed for immunofluorescence microscopy, fluorescence based plate assays (FLISA) and fluorescent western blotting. This product is also suitable for multiplex analysis, including multicolor imaging, utilizing various commercial platforms. Chicken IgY lacks the classic "Fc" domain and does not bind to mammalian IgG Fc receptors. Thus resulting in lower backgrounds for western blotting, ELISA and Immunohistochemistry.
Synonyms: GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein, GFP antibody, Green Fluorescent Protein antibody, EGFP, enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein, Aequorea victoria, Jellyfish.
