Physical State: Liquid (sterile filtered)
Purity and Specificity: GFP control protein was expressed in E. coli and purified by sequential hydrophobic interaction chromatography, DEAE chromatography and size-exclusion chromatography. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against Anti-GFP. Analysis by SDS-PAGE resulted in a pattern consistent with purified GFP and was estimated to be greater than 90% pure.
Background: Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) is used as a positive control when detecting GFP fusion proteins in Anti-GFP antibody assays. Rockland offers multiple purified hosts and conjugated Anti-GFP that can detect GFP by ELISA (sandwich or capture) or western blot. Biotin conjugated polyclonal Anti-GFP used in a sandwich ELISA is well suited to titrate GFP in solution when used in combination with monoclonal Anti-GFP (p/n 600-301-215), using either form of the antibody as the capture or detection antibody.
