Target

  • Relevance

    Epitope tags are short peptide sequences that are easily recognized by tag-specific antibodies. Due to their small size, epitope tags do not affect the tagged protein’s biochemical properties. Most often sequences encoding the epitope tag are included with target DNA at the time of cloning to produce fusion proteins containing the epitope tag sequence. This allows anti-epitope tag antibodies to serve as universal detection reagents for any tag containing protein produced by recombinant means. This means that anti-epitope tag antibodies are a useful alternative to generating specific antibodies to identify, immunoprecipitate or immunoaffinity purify a recombinant protein. The anti-epitope tag antibody is usually functional in a variety of antibody-dependent experimental procedures. Expression vectors producing epitope tag fusion proteins are available for a variety of host expression systems including bacteria, yeast, insect and mammalian cells.

      Myc tag was immunoprecipitated using 0.5mg CHO overexpressing Stra8 whole cell lysate, 5µg of Mouse monoclonal to Myc tag and 50µl of protein G magnetic beads (+). No antibody was added to the control (-).

      The antibody was incubated under agitation with Protein G beads for 10min, CHO overexpressing Stra8 whole cell lysate lysate diluted in RIPA buffer was added to each sample and incubated for a further 10min under agitation.

      Proteins were eluted by addition of 40µl SDS loading buffer and incubated for 10min at 70°C; 10µl of each sample was separated on a SDS PAGE gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% BSA and probed with ab56.

      Secondary: Goat polyclonal to mouse IgG light chain specific (HRP) at 1/20,000 dilution.

    Question

    I'd like to know whether this antibody works efficiently in ChIP (conventional paraformaldehyde fixation) of Myc-tagged (one tag) proteins expressed in mammalian tissue culture cells. .

    Answer

    This antibody was qualified as "ChIP grade" following its application in the following publications; Robert F et al. Global position and recruitment of HATs and HDACs in the yeast genome. Mol Cell 16:199-209 (2004). PubMed: 15494307 Zhang H et al. The Yaf9 component of the SWR1 and NuA4 complexes is required for proper gene expression, histone H4 acetylation, and Htz1 replacement near telomeres. Mol Cell Biol 24:9424-36 (2004). PubMed: 15485911 We have received reports suggesting that the antibody does not give a huge enrichment but that the enrichment is specific. Furthermore it is guaranteed for this purpose. I would recommend that you consult the publications for details of the approach that was adopted. From my recollection they did use proteins tagged with more than one Myc-tag.

    Answer

    Thank you for your enquiry and your interest in our products. I would suggest taking a look at the published references to have some more information about the breast cancer cell types in which c-myc is expressed. Locker AP et al. c-myc oncogene product expression and prognosis in operable breast cancer. Br J Cancer 60:669-72 (1989). PubMed: 2679850 Once you know which tumour types you are looking for, you can conduct a search in our on-line catalogue. We have several human breast tissue slides such as: ab4696: fibroadenoma, ab4701: adenocarcinoma, ab4697: dusctal carcinoma, ab4698: lobular carcinoma, ab4700: medullary carcinoma

    Question

    Can I use c-myc 9e11 for histochemical localization in paraffin embedded sections and what antigen retrival steps do I take and what conc is optimum??

    Read More
    Answer

    Thsi antibody works well for histochemical localization in paraffin embedded sections. We would recommend a microwave retrieval (10 minutes in 0.01M citrate buffer, pH 6.0, the specific time will depend on the power of the microwave). Leave the 1ary antibody on overnight at a concentration of 5ug/ml.
