Frequently Asked Questions
Application
For purification of N-terminal FLAG fusion proteins. Since binding is Ca2+-dependent, proteins can be eluted with a buffer containing EDTA, as well as by the standard methods using either FLAG peptide or glycine-HCl buffer, pH 3. ANTI-FLAG M1 does not bind to Met-FLAG fusion proteins, so this resin is not appropriate for purifying unprocessed, cytoplasmically expressed fusion proteins.
Features and Benefits
• Typically purify fusion proteins from crude lysates to single band purity in just one chromatography step.
• Fusion protein may be eluted from affinity resin by mild elution with EDTA.
• A solution of FLAG peptide can be used for gentle, non-denaturing elution of FLAG fusion proteins.
