HA-Tag antibody (C-Term) (Biotin)

Catalog No. ABIN1101939

Product Details anti-HA-Tag Antibody (Biotin)

Target: HA-Tag

Binding Specificity: C-Term

Reactivity: Please inquire

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This HA-Tag antibody is conjugated to Biotin

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Sequence: YPYDVPDYA

Specificity: 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 so far tested. In western blotting of bacterial extracts the antibody does not cross-react with endogenous proteins. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-biotin and anti-Rabbit Serum.

Purification: Affinity purified

Immunogen: This antibody was purified from whole rabbit serum prepared by repeated immunizations with the 9-aa epitope tag peptide YPYDVPDYA (11 114-122) from hemagglutinin influenza conjugated to KLH using maleimide. A residue of cysteine was added to the carboxy terminal end to facilitate coupling.

Type of Immunogen: Purified protein

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: Approved: ELISA, IHC (1:1000 - 1:5000), WB (1:2000 - 1:10000)

Usage: Anti-HA is optimally suited for monitoring the expression of HA tagged fusion proteins. As such, anti-HA/HA can be used to identify fusion proteins containing the HA epitope. The antibody recognizes the HA epitope tag fused to the amino- terminus of targeted proteins as is expressed in many commonly used expression vectors. This antibody has been tested by ELISA and western blotting against both the immunizing peptide and HA containing recombinant proteins. Although not tested, this antibody is likely functional for immunoprecipitation and immunocytochemistry, and other immunodetection techniques. Affinity purification of the polyclonal antibody results in very low background levels in assays and low cross-reactivity with other cellular proteins. Biotin conjugated anti-EPITOPE tag antibodies are generally suitable for immunoblotting, ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunomicroscopy as well as other antibody based assays using streptavidin or avidin conjugates. The applications listed have been tested for the unconjugated form of this product. Other forms have not been tested.
