Product Information
Kit for IP/ Co-IP of Spot-tagged proteins & sample preparation for mass spectrometry (MS)
Description | The iST Spot-Trap® Kit enables researchers to process Spot-tagged proteins and their interacting partners for Mass Spectrometric analysis. The kit includes the ChromoTek Spot-Trap for immunoprecipitation/Co-IP of Spot-tagged 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 Spot-tagged proteins & interacting partners by mass spectrometry. • Identification of even low abundant/ low expressed Spot-tagged proteins • Superior processing of IP samples into clean peptide mixtures • Intuitive protocol and reproducible results |
Specificity/Target | Spot-Tag® sequence PDRVRAVSHWSS |
Binding capacity | 17.5 μg of recombinant Spot-tagged protein (~30 kDa) per 25 μL bead slurry |
Conjugate | Agarose beads; bead size: ~ 90 µm (cross-linked 4 % agarose beads) |
Type | Nanobody |
Class | Recombinant |
Host | Alpaca |
Affinity (KD) | Dissociation constant KD of 6 nM |
Compatibility with mass spectrometry | The Spot-Trap® is optimized for on-bead digestion. |
Storage Buffer | 20% ethanol |
Storage Condition | Kit is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt store Spot-Trap at 4°C and Digest at -20°C |
Spot-Tag® Origin | Engineered 12 amino acid sequence modified from the unstructured N-terminus of beta-catenin |
Cross Reactivity | The Spot-Nanobody shows minimal cross reactivity with beta-catenin. |
