Product Overview
Description
HA-Tag Tag Antibody is specific for the HA (Haemagglutinin) epitope tag peptide sequence YPYDVPDYA, when fused to either the amino- or carboxyl- terminus of target proteins, including expression in many frequently used expression vectors. HA-TAG Tag Antibody has been tested against both the immunogen and recombinant proteins containing the HA sequence in ELISA and Western blotting. In Western blotting of bacterial extracts this antibody has been shown not to cross-react with any endogenous proteins.
