Product datasheet Anti-MAT tag antibody [MAT1-87] ab50292 Overview Product name Anti-MAT tag antibody [MAT1-87] Description Mouse monoclonal [MAT1-87] to MAT tag Specificity ab50292 recognizes the seven amino acid MAT epitope sequence within either N or C terminal MAT-tagged fusion proteins Tested applications ICC/IF, WB, IP, ELISA Immunogen A synthetic MAT peptide HNHRHKHGGGC conjugated to KLH. Run BLAST with Positive control Run BLAST with Cell extracts expressing a C-terminal MAT-tagged protein. General notes Monoclonal antibodies reacting specifically with the MAT tag may be useful in various immuno detection techniques to identify the expression of a MAT fusion protein or to aid in isolation and purification when MAT fusion proteins are produced in prokaryotic or eukaryotic host cells.

Clonality Monoclonal Clone number MAT1-87 Isotype IgG2a 1 Applications Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab50292 in the following tested applications. The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews Notes ICC/IF Use at an assay dependent concentration. WB Use a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. Predicted molecular weight: 1 kDa. IP Use a concentration of 5 - 10 µg/ml. 5 - 10 µg can immunoprecipitate a recombinant C-terminal MAT-tagged protein. ELISA Use at an assay dependent concentration. Target Relevance The MAT tag is a seven amino acid peptide tag that binds to transition metals such as Nickel and Cobalt. This tag, which consists of the sequence HNHRHKH, allows the purification of MAT fusion proteins using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) such as the highly selective HIS-Select® Nickel Affinity Gel. The MAT tag sequence can be incorporated into both prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression vectors.
