General description

Bacteriophage T4 endolysin (EC 3.2.1.17; UniProt P00720; also known as T4 lysis protein, T4 lysozyme, T4 muramidase, T4L) is encoded by the T4 E gene. T4 lysozyme (T4L) is a 164-a.a. monomeric protein that hydrolyzes peptidoglycan.T4L functions outside the cytoplasmic membrane and starts the phage extracellular phase by liberating virions from the metabolically inert remains of the bacterial host. Similar to glutathione S-transferase (GST) and T7 lysozyme, T4L sequence is commonly utilized to generate soluble recombinant fusions of hydrophobic proteins, such as multitransmembrane proteins, that are otherwise not soluble when expressed entirely in their native sequences. Antibodies against T4L are useful in detecting T4L in T4-infected bacteria hosts and in probing recombinant T4L fusion proteins.

Specificity

Clone 6A6 detects T4L and recombinant T4L fusion proteins.

Immunogen

Recombinant T4L fusion protein.

Application

Anti-T4 Lysozyme (T4L) Antibody, clone 6A6, Cat. No. MABS1289, is a highly specific mouse monoclonal antibody that targets bacteriophage T4 lysozyme (T4L), validated for use in Immunoprecipitation and Western Blotting for the detection of T4L and T4L-tagged fusion proteins.
Immunoprecipitation Analysis: 1 µg from a representative lot immunoprecipitated exogenously expressed TL4 fusion protein from 1.5 µg of lysate of transfected cells by an independent laboratory.
