Human influenza hemagglutinin (HA) is a surface glycoprotein required for the infectivity of the human virus. The HA tag derived from the HA molecule corresponding to amino acids 98-106 has been extensively used as a general epitope tag in expression vectors.
The V5 epitope tag is derived from a small epitope(Pk) present on the P and V proteins of theparamyxovirus of simian virus 5 (SV5). The V5 tag isusually used with all 14 amino acids (GKPIPNPLLGLDST), and useful for western blotting,immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation
experiments.
GST (Glutathione S-Transferase) is a 26kDa protein,encoded by the parasitic helminth Schistosoma
japonicum and widely used in the pGEX family of GSTplasmid expression vectors as a fusion protein with
foreign proteins.This antibody can recognize both
A fusion tag, called HA-tag and consisting of 9 amino acids (YPYDVPDYA) , was specifically designed for immunoaffinity chromatography. It allows elution under non-denaturing conditions.
