Specificity / Sensitivity
GST (26H1) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 647 Conjugate) detects transfected glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a GST fusion protein. This 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 cytometric analysis of COS cells, untransfected (blue) or transfected with GST (green), using GST (26H1) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 647 Conjugate).
Description
This Cell Signaling Technology antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorescent dye and tested in-house for direct flow cytometric analysis in cells transfected with GST-tagged protein.
Background
Epitope tags are useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation and immunostaining techniques. Due to their small size, they are unlikely to affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties.
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is a widely used fusion partner, since it provides both an easily detectable Tag and a simple purification process with little effect on the biological function of the protein of interest. Numerous vectors containing GST-Tag have been developed for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems over the past decade (1-3).
