    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology® antibody is the trFluor™ Europium Cryptate version of the unconjugated DYKDDDDK Tag (D6W5B) Rabbit mAb (Binds to same epitope as Sigma-Aldrich Anti-FLAG M2 antibody) #14793 and is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity. Time-resolved (TR) fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), or TR-FRET, data were generated using the conjugated antibody.

    Fluorescent Properties

    • ← Excitation: 305 nm ← Emission: 617 nm

    Product Usage Information

    trFluor™ Europium Cryptate conjugated antibodies are ideal for protein-protein interaction assays, pair-based immunoassay technologies, or high-throughput screening where greater sensitivity and quantitative detection is needed. The long fluorescent decay time of Europium Cryptate results in improved signal to background over fluorescent dye conjugates. Methods utilizing Europium Cryptate conjugated antibodies include, but are not limited to, TR-FRET, where Europium Cryptate-labeled donor antibodies are paired with red fluorophore-labeled acceptor antibodies, such as Alexa Fluor® 647 or APC. Please contact us if you require an acceptor antibody clone conjugated to a red dye at a custom concentration, a carrier-free formulation, or a more customized packaging solution.

    Note: Addition of potassium fluoride (KF) in the assay dilution buffer range of 40-400 mM is recommended for enhanced fluorescent signal. Optimal dilutions and working concentrations of both the conjugated antibodies and the KF should be determined by the end user.

    Storage

    Supplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    DYKDDDDK Tag (D6W5B) Rabbit mAb (Binds to same epitope as Sigma-Aldrich Anti-FLAG M2 antibody) (trFluor™ Europium Cryptate Conjugate) detects exogenously expressed DYKDDDDK proteins in cells. This antibody conjugate recognizes the DYKDDDDK peptide, which is the same epitope recognized by Sigma-Aldrich Anti-FLAG M2 antibody, fused to either the amino-terminus or carboxy-terminus of the target protein.

    Species Reactivity:

    All Species Expected

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic DYKDDDDK peptide.

    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 DYKDDDDK peptide has been used extensively as a general epitope tag in expression vectors. This peptide can be expressed and detected with the protein of interest as an amino-terminal or carboxy-terminal fusion (1).
