MBP Epitope Tag antibody (Biotin)

• Catalog Number: orb344774
• Category: Antibodies
• Description: MBP Epitope Tag antibody (Biotin)
• Species/Host: Rabbit
• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Tested applications: ELISA, WB
• Isotype: IgG
• Immunogen: This antibody was purified from whole rabbit serum prepared by repeated immunizations with the MBP epitope tag recombinant protein.
• Concentration: 1.0 mg/mL
• Dilution range: ELISA: 1:10,000-1:50,000, WB: 1:1,000-1:5,000
• Form/Appearance: Lyophilized
• Purity: This IgG purified antibody is directed against MBP and is useful in determining its presence in various assays. This polyclonal anti-MBP tag antibody detects over-expressed proteins containing the MBP epitope tag. To date this antibody has reacted with all MBP tagged proteins so far tested. In western blotting of bacterial extracts the antibody does not cross-react with endogenous proteins.
• Conjugation: Biotin
• Storage: Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.
• Buffer/Preservatives: 0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide
• Alternative names: rabbit anti-MBP Epitope Tag Antibody biotin conjug
• Note: For research use only
• Application notes: Anti-MBP Biotin Conjugated Antibody is optimally suited for monitoring the expression of MBP tagged fusion proteins. As such, anti- MBP/MBP can be used to identify fusion proteins containing the MBP epitope. The antibody recognizes the MBP epitope tag fused to the amino- or carboxy- termini of targeted proteins. This antibody has been tested by ELISA and western blotting against MBP containing recombinant proteins. Although not tested, this antibody is likely functional for immunoprecipitation and immunocytochemistry, and other immunodetection techniques. Maltose binding protein is a bacterial protein, which is often used in protein expression studies because it creates a stable fusion product that does not appear to interfere with the bioactivity of the protein of interest. It also allows for its easy purification from bacterial extracts under mild conditions. Anti-MBP is a companion to the pMAL protein expression system and can be used for the detection and purification of MBP-fusion proteins expressed in E. coli. By Western blot, a band is seen at ~ 42 kDa representing MBP.
