Why GFP-Trap gives the best immunoprecipitation results

Why GFP-Trap gives the best immunoprecipitation (IP) results

 

Affinity beads for immunoprecipitation (IP)

GFP-Trap is part of our Nano-Traps product line. They are ideal for fast and efficient immunoprecipitations (IP). Nano-Traps consist of VHHs, also termed Nanobodies, coupled to beads.  

The immunoprecipitation (IP) validation of GFP with ChromoTek's GFP-Trap Agarose beads

Immunoprecipitation of GFP with GFP-Trap Agarose beads. I: Input, FT: Flow-Through, B: Bound

Nano-Traps for IP:

  • No heavy & light antibody chains
  • Stringent washing conditions
  • Low host cell protein background
  • Very efficient pulldown, no protein in flow through (FT)
  • High affinity to bind even proteins expressed at low levels
  • Short incubation (30-60 min)
  • Recombinantly expressed and validated

 Applications:

  • Immunoprecipitation/ Co-IP
  • Mass spectrometry
  • On-bead enzyme assays
  • ChIP, RIP analysis
