Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Myc-Tag (9B11) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 647 Conjugate) detects transfected proteins containing the Myc epitope tag. The antibody recognizes the Myc-tag fused to either the amino or carboxy terminus of targeted proteins in transfected mammalian cells.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues 410-419 of human c-Myc (EQKLISEEDL). The antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 under optimal conditions with an F/P ratio of 2-6. The Alexa Fluor® 647 dye is maximally excited by red light (e.g. 633 nm He-Ne laser). Antibody conjugates of the Alexa Fluor® 647 dye produce bright far-red-fluorescence emission, with a peak at 665 nm.

Flow Cytometry

Flow Cytometry

Flow cytometric analysis of COS cells, untransfected (blue) or transfected with Myc-tagged Akt (green), using Myc-Tag (9B11) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 647 Conjugate).

IF-IC

IF-IC

Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of COS cells expressing a Myc-tagged protein (left) and untreated (right), using Myc-Tag (9B11) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 647 Conjugate) (blue pseudocolor). Actin filaments have been labeled with DY-554 phalloidin (red).

Description

This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorescent dye and tested in-house for direct flow cytometry and immunofluorescent analysis in cells transfected with Myc-tagged protein.

Background

Epitope tags are useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunostaining techniques. Because of their small size, they are unlikely to affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties.

The Myc epitope tag is widely used to detect expression of recombinant proteins in bacteria, yeast, insect and mammalian cell systems.
