Cleaved Antibody vs. Neo-Epitope Antibody

Proteolytic cleavage generates defined protein fragments and can create a new N- or C-terminus. Cleavage-specific antibodies are used to distinguish processed protein states from the full-length target. A true neo-epitope antibody specifically recognises the newly generated cleavage boundary, whereas some cleaved antibodies recognise a processed fragment more broadly.

When strict cleavage-site specificity is required, review the product's immunogen, epitope or specificity information, expected fragment and validation data before selection.

How to Choose a Cleavage-Specific Antibody

Selection should be based on the exact protein fragment and cleavage event you need to measure, not only on the parent protein name.

1

Identify the cleavage site or fragment

Check the cleavage residue and fragment designation, such as Cleaved-Asp175, p17, p20, N-terminal or C-terminal. Different cleavage products can represent different biological states.

2

Confirm cleavage-state specificity

Review the immunogen and specificity information to determine whether the antibody recognises a cleavage-generated neo-terminus, a defined cleavage site or a broader cleaved fragment.

3

Match application and fragment size

Confirm validation for your intended application and species. For Western blotting, compare the expected molecular weight of the cleaved fragment with the full-length protein.

4

Use appropriate cleavage controls

Where possible, pair the cleavage-specific antibody with a total-target antibody and include positive and negative cleavage controls to distinguish proteolytic processing from changes in total protein.
