Affinity purification is based on the specific interaction of a target molecule with an immobilized ligand. Affinity technology can isolate specific molecules from a mixture, capture a desired molecule for interaction studies, or remove a component from a reaction. For recombinant proteins, the addition of fusion tags using appropriate expression vectors enables affinity purification by a number of strategies. Here we showcase products specifically designed for the purification or detection of fusion proteins containing His•Tag®, GST•Tag™, S•Tag™, Strep•Tag® II, HSV•Tag®, Nus•Tag™, and T7•Tag® sequences. | |
