Product Description
FLAG peptide is an eight amino acid (AA) polypeptide (Asp-Tyr-Lys-Asp-Asp-Asp-Asp-Lys) with an enterokinase cleavage site. FLAG peptide for antibody-mediated identification and purification of recombinant proteins.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Fusion protein technology has emerged as a crucial instrument for addressing various issues related to the production of recombinant proteins. The attached tag's nature makes it easier to identify the fusion protein and offers a one-step purification process by allowing cell extracts or supernatants to be passed through a column in the right matrix. The FLAG peptide is permitted to elute in nondenaturing circumstances. The FLAG peptide is the target of several antibodies that have been created. The peptide and one antibody, M1, bind when divalent metal cations are present, preferably Ca2+. Chelation agents facilitate elution. Using an excess of free FLAGe peptide during competitive elution is another tactic. In this process, antibodies M2 and M5 were employed [1]. Monoclonal antibody epitopes that are dependent on calcium were the first to be identified as flag-tags. It is an octapeptide with a high acidity that can have its N-terminus fused to the target protein. The Flag tag has a high surface probability because it is a highly hydrophilic peptide. Immunoaffinity columns can be used to collect flag fusion proteins when Ca2+ is present, and EDTA can be used to elute the proteins at low concentrations, neutral pH, and conditions that are close to physiological values [2].

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
g/mol

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.

Reconstitution Calculator allows you to calculate the volume of solvent required to reconstitute your vial.

  • Enter the mass of the reagent and the desired reconstitution concentration as well as the correct units
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer appears in the Volume (to add to vial) box
