Background Information
Protein tags are a protein or peptide sequences located either on the C- or N- terminal of the target protein, which can facilitate solubility, detection, purification, localization, and expression of the target protein. The HA tag corresponds to amino acid residues YPYDVPDYA of a surface glycoprotein -human influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA). The HA tag is commonly used for a variety of research applications including chromatin immunoprecipitation, ELISA, flow cytometry, western blotting, immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence among of others.

Reviews
What customers say
User feedback is mixed. One reviewer (5/5) praised it as the best HA antibody they've used, reporting crisp, specific staining with minimal background in IF on U2OS cells at 1:500 dilution, consistent across both stable and transiently transfected lines. Another reviewer (1/5) reported unreliable signal in their positive cell line and notable nuclear background in both positive and negative controls during IF on iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes at 1:400 dilution. Results appear to vary by cell type and experimental setup.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Kiara (Verified Customer) (07-28-2025) | Did not give a reliable signal in our positive cell line (CRISPRi that should have HA-tagged dCas9-KRAB). Additionally, there is quite some background as in both the positive and the negative line (WTC11), the nuclei are stained.

Emile (Verified Customer) (04-08-2025) | This HA Tag Recombinant antibody (81290-1-RR) is by far the best HA antibody I have used. It worked exceptionally well in my hands for immunofluorescence experiments. I tested it on a stable cell line expressing an HA-tagged protein and on cells transiently transfected with an HA-tagged protein, and the results were consistently outstanding. The staining was crisp and specific, with minimal background. I used it at a 1:500 dilution on U2OS cells and achieved excellent results.
