GSK-3β-Tag Antibody detects transfected levels of GSK-3β-tagged proteins as well as endogenous GSK-3β (46 kDa).
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic GSK-3β-Tag peptide. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Background
Epitope tags are useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunostaining techniques. Due to their small size, they are unlikely to affect the tagged protein's biochemical properties.Short phosphorylatable peptide tags, such as the GSK-3β-tag, can be used to determine translocation of effector proteins in type III secretion systems (1).
