The His-tag is one of the most commonly used purification tags, with six or more consecutive histidine residues. It can be attached to either the N- or the C-terminus of recombinant proteins. Here histidine tends to strongly coordinate with metal ions, such as Ni2+ or Co2+ immobilized on beads or a resin for purification. Since this tag is small, it does not require removal before use of the recombinant protein, and it does not cause any significant interference with the function or structure of a majority of proteins. The His-tagged proteins can be easily detected or purified by used of anti-His-tag antibody. This antibody can also be used to monitor the progress of purification and detection of proteins using immunoblotting, immunostaining, and immunoprecipitation protocols. It can detect proteins with His-tag fused to either the N- or the C-terminus. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies. Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Clone 1J13 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects His-tagged proteins.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.

Reconstitute lyophilized antibody pellet with 25μL of ultrapure water or Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). Please refer to our reconstitution protocol and the specific application guidance on the suggested starting dilutions and sample type.
