GST Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

Plasmid vectors for the expression of coding regions of eukaryotic genes in E.coli are in common usage; such expression vectors often encode hybrid fusion proteins containing part prokaryotic and part eukaryotic specified proteins. For instance, the pGEX.3X expression vector developed by Smith and Johnson allows for synthesis of fusion proteins between glutathionine-S-transferase (GST) and proteins encoded by inserted cDNA sequences. Antibodies derived from these GST fusion proteins are useful for checking protein expression both in plaques and on Western blots as well as for immunoaffinity purification of proteins expressed in E. Coli.

Small volumes of anti-GST-Tag antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
