Product Information

Kit for IP and Co-IP of RFP- and mCherry fusion proteins & sample preparation for mass spectrometry (MS)

DescriptionThe iST RFP-Trap® Kit for processing RFP-fusion proteins and their interacting partners for mass spectrometry analysis: The kit includes the RFP-Trap for IP/Co-IP of RFP-fusion proteins and the PreOmics iST buffers and cartridges required for bottom-up proteomic sample preparation. This robust method yields purified peptides while dramatically reducing contamination and sample loss. Each kit accommodates up to eight samples and includes pull-down reagent for controls:

• Reliable dentification of RFP-fusion proteins & interacting partners by MS

• Identification of even low abundant RFP-fusion proteins

• Superior processing of IP samples into clean peptide mixtures

• Intuitive protocol for reproducible results

ApplicationsIP, MS
Specificity/TargetmRFP, mCherry, mRFPruby, mPlum, tagRFP, mKate2, mOrange, PA-mCherry, mScarlet
