Anti-Myc Tag Antibody, clone 4A6, HRP conjugate

General description

Immunogen: peptide corresponding to amino acids 410-420 (MEQKLISEEDL) of human Myc

Specificity: Recognizes and is specific for recombinant proteins containing the Myc epitope tag (EQKLISEEDL) in a variety of sequence contexts. Also recognizes human Myc.

Species Cross-reactivity: Human, others not tested

Ig Type: IgG

Host: Mouse

Molecular Weight: Varies depending upon the protein which is tagged

Myc-Tag is a short synthetic peptide sequence derived from C-terminal region of human c-myc that is used as an epitope tag. The Myc tag can be cloned either upstream or downstream of the target gene, resulting in a fusion protein that allows efficient purification, detection, and localization of target proteins. The relatively small size of this tag vs. other commonly used tags such as GST (30 kDa) makes it less likely to interfere with target protein structure or function. The myc epitope tag is widely used to detect expression of recombinant proteins in bacterial, yeast, insect, and mammalian systems.
