HA Tag Monoclonal antibody

Catalog Number:

66006-2-Ig

Clone Number:

N/A

In my current work, I express recombinant proteins tagged with HA in mammalian cells to observe condensate formation under osmotic stress. Due to the absence of appropriate antibodies for my protein of interest, the use of a small HA tag allows for visualization via immunofluorescence.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Immunofluorescence

Sample

293T cells

Primary Incubation

1:500 for 1 hr at 4 degrees C

Blocking Agent

1% BSA

Secondary Incubation

Gunieapig anti-Mouse AF594

Tertiary Incubation

None

Detection

Confocal imaging

Results Summary

The image provides a clear depiction of the successful labeling of the overexpressed protein, highlighted in green fluorescence, against the background of the DAPI-stained nucleus in blue. Notably, the specificity of the antibody is evident from the discernible staining confined solely to the transfected cells. When conducting multicolor imaging, the use of an unconjugated primary antibody proves advantageous, as it offers flexibility in selecting from a diverse array of conjugated secondary antibodies for immunofluorescence staining, thereby optimizing experimental design and ensuring precise visualization of multiple targets within the same sample.
