Reactive species
Species independent
Immunogen
Synthetic Peptide of KT3-Tag
Specificity
The antibody detects KT3 tag fusion proteins.
Constitute
PBS, pH 7.4, containing 0.5%BSA, 0.02% sodium azide as Preservative and 50% Glycerol.
Purification process
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen.
Background
The KT3 epitope tag is commonly engineered onto the N- or C- terminus of a protein of interest so that the tagged protein can be analyzed and visualized using immunochemical methods. KT3 epitope tag can be used to monitor expression of the protein products transfected with cDNA constructs. The recognized KT3 epitope represents the amino acid sequence KPPTPPPEPET derived from the Simian Virus 40 (SV40) large T-antigen.
