Summary >

Description: 

Anti-HA tag, AlpSdAbs® VHH is designed for detecting HA tag fusion proteins specifically. Anti-HA tag, AlpSdAbs® VHH is based on monoclonal, recombinant, single domain antibody derived from the variable regions of heavy chain of Alpaca pacous, and Anti-HA tag, AlpSdAbs® VHH detects the HA tag selectively, no reactivity with other proteins.

Background:

The HA tag is widely used for detecting, manipulating or purifying proteins. This peptide can be expressed and detected with the protein of interest as an amino-terminal or carboxy-terminal fusion. Because of its small size, HA tag is unlikely to affect the tagged protein’s biochemical properties. HA tag is useful for the labeling and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunostaining techniques.

VHH are single-domain antibodies derived from the variable regions of heavy chain of Camelidae immunoglobulin. The size of VHH is extremely small(<15KDa) compared to other forms of antibody fragment, which significantly increase the permeability of VHH. Thus VHH is considered of great value for research, diagnostics and therapeutics.

Dilution factors are presented in the form of a range because the optimal dilution is a function of many factors, such as antigen density, permeability, etc. The actual dilution used must be determined empirically.
