Well-characterized antibodies for epitope tags consisting of short sequences have been widely used in the study of protein expression in various systems.
The NWSHPQFEK, a nine-amino acid peptide that is capable of binding to the biotin pocket of streptavidin was engineered. The Rabbit anti NWSHPQFEK polyclonal antibody is developed in rabbit using a synthetic NWSHPQFEK peptide conjugated to KLH.
This polyclonal antibody is highly purified from rabbit antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography and then conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. The antibody is suitable for detecting fusion proteins that contain NWSHPQFEK.
