Tag Antibodies (Epitope-Tag Detection)

abinScience tag antibodies are optimized for detecting epitope-tagged proteins across WB, IP/Co-IP, IF/IHC, and flow cytometry. Covers FLAG, HA, Myc, His, V5, GST, GFP/mCherry. Clone-defined, application-validated, with unconjugated & conjugated formats (HRP/biotin/Alexa/FITC/PE). Lot-specific CoAs. RUO

Selection Guide

  1. Application: Choose high-affinity monoclonals for WB/IP; bright, stable fluor conjugates (AF488/AF647, PE) for IF/Flow.
  2. Epitope Exposure: N/C-terminal placement, linker length, and folding affect recognition. Use polyclonals or switch tags if masked.
  3. Conjugate: HRP/biotin for WB/ELISA; Alexa/FITC/PE for IF/Flow; unconjugated for IP to avoid interference.
  4. Controls: Use positive control plasmids/known expressors; peptide competition for FLAG/HA/Myc; untransfected cells for GFP.
  5. Denaturing vs Native: WB (denaturing) and IP (native) have different antibody requirements. Check datasheet validation.

Applications

Recombinant protein detection and purification (WB, IP/Co-IP)
Cellular localization and live/fixed-cell imaging (IF/IHC)
Flow cytometry detection of tagged surface proteins

FAQs

Will anti-FLAG/HA/Myc work at either terminus?

Generally yes; extreme proximity to membranes or folded domains may mask epitopes—use flexible linkers (e.g., GGGGS) or switch tag/antibody.

Does anti-His recognize 8×His or 10×His?

Most anti-His detect poly-His lengths ≥6; 8× and 10×His are recognized. Check product page for validation and buffer guidance.

Which conjugate should I choose?

HRP/biotin for WB/ELISA; Alexa 488/647 or PE for IF/Flow; use unconjugated for IP to avoid steric hindrance or background.
