Fusion of proteins to Glutathione S-Transferase (GST) of Schistosoma japonicum is a common technique to increase solubility and expression level of a protein. Furthermore, GST-tagged fusion proteins are often used in protein-protein interaction studies. Both approaches require highly specific tools to isolate and detect GST fusion proteins.
The GST-Trap is a highly specific and robust GST-binding protein coupled to magnetic particles for biochemical analysis of GST fusion proteins and their interacting partners.
Use GST-Trap for:
• (one step) Pulldowns/ Immunoprecipitations
• Mass spectroscopy
• Enzyme activity measurements
Conventional GST antibody (6G9)
To complement the Alpaca Antibody Advantage based trap that recognizes native protein, we also offer a rat monoclonal for Western blot applications where the denatured protein needs to be detected.
