General description

Monoclonal Anti-MAT (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the MAT1-87 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic MAT peptide HNHRHKHGGGC conjugated to KLH.
Monoclonal Anti-Mat-Tag antibody was used in one-step purification of histidine-tagged fusion proteins under high pressure and high flow conditions. It is used in the characterization of the molecular architecture of human caveolin-3 and interaction with the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor.

Specificity

Monoclonal Anti-MAT recognizes the seven amino acid MAT epitope sequence within either N or C terminal MAT-tagged fusion proteins.

Immunogen

synthetic MAT peptide HNHRHKHGGGC.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-MAT-Tag® antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
  • enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
  • immunoblotting
  • immunoprecipitation
  • immunocytochemistry

The MAT tag is a seven amino acid peptide tag that binds to transition metals such as Nickel and Cobalt. This tag, which consists of the sequence HNHRHKH, allows the purification of MAT fusion proteins using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) such as the highly selective HIS-Select® Nickel Affinity Gel. The MAT tag sequence can be incorporated into both prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression vectors.

Physical form

Supplied as a solution in 0.01M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide as a preservative.

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in "frost-free" freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.

Caveolin-3 facilitates both caveolae formation and a range of cell signaling pathways, including Ca(2+) homeostasis. Caveolin-3 forms a disc-shaped nonamer that binds the Ca(2+)-release channel, RyR1. Multiple caveolin-3 nonamers bind to a single RyR1 homotetramer. First three-dimensional structural insights into
