Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. For a carrier free (BSA and azide free) version of this product see product # 28064 . Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin), Flow Cytometry (Fixed/Permeabilized) Specificity / Sensitivity GFP (4B10) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody detects GFP, YFP, and CFP-tagged proteins exogenously expressed in cells. This antibody does not detect RFP-tagged proteins. Please note that the GFP, YFP, and CFP tags add approximately 27 kDa to the molecular weight of the fusion protein. Species Reactivity: All Species Expected Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with full-length recombinant GFP. Background Epitope tags are useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunostaining techniques. Because of their small size, they are unlikely to affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties. The green-fluorescent protein (GFP) functions as a bioluminescence energy transfer acceptor in the jellyfish Aequorea that maximally absorbs light at 395 nm and has an emission spectrum that peaks at 509 nm. GFP has become a very useful tool as a fusion protein that reports gene expression, traces cell lineages and defines subcellular protein localizations (1).
