Sigma′s FLAG Immunoprecipitation kit allows a rapid and efficient immunoprecipitation and elution of an active FLAG-tagged protein. The immunoprecipitation is performed with the ANTI-FLAG M2 affinity gel, which is a highly specific monoclonal antibody covalently attached to agarose resin. The use of affinity resin allows an efficient binding of FLAG-tagged proteins without the need for preliminary steps and calibrations. The immunoprecipitated FLAG-tagged proteins can be efficiently eluted from the resin with acidic conditions or by competition with FLAG peptide. The immunoprecipitated proteins can be detected for their size, post-translational modifications, and interactions on gel electrophoresis, and by activity assays.

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a major cause of severe respiratory diseases, efficiently suppresses cellular innate immunity, represented by type I interferon (IFN), using its two unique nonstructural proteins, NS1 and NS2. In a search for their mechanism, NS1 was
Mammalian mitochondria contain their own genome that is almost fully transcribed from both strands, generating polycistronic RNA units that are processed and matured. The mitochondrial mRNA is modified by oligo- or polyadenylation at the 3' termini, but the exact function

With no lysine kinase 4 (WNK4) is essential to activate the thiazide-sensitive NaCl cotransporter (NCC) along the distal convoluted tubule, an effect central to the phenotype of familial hyperkalemic hypertension. Although effects on potassium and sodium channels along the connecting

Epithelial cell-cell contacts maintain normal glandular tissue homeostasis, and their breakage can trigger epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a fundamental step in the development of metastatic cancer. Despite the ability of C-type lectin domains (CTLD) to modulate cell-cell adhesion, it is not

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is among the most lethal forms of cancer in women. Excessive genomic rearrangements, which are expected to create fusion oncogenes, are the hallmark of this cancer. Here we report a cancer-specific gene fusion between BCAM
