3コピーのFLAG®あるいはc-Mycエピトープ・タグ

エピトープ・タグは、それぞれの目的タンパク質に対して特異的な抗体を作製することなく、それらの検出、追跡、同定を行うことができ、タンパク質の機能解析を行う際に非常に有効なツールです。アジレント(旧ストラタジーン)のpCMV-3Tag Vectorシリーズは、目的のタンパク質のN-末端もしくはC-末端へFLAG®あるいはc-Mycのいずれかのタグを3コピー付けられる、哺乳類細胞での発現ベクター・システムです。FLAG®とc-Mycはそれぞれ8アミノ酸(DYKDDDDK)と 10アミノ酸(EQKLISEEDL)と小さいため、融合させる目的のタンパク質の機能を損なうことがほとんどありません。また、免疫反応性が非常に高く、市販されている抗体によって簡単に検出することができます。また、タグを3コピー付加することにより、ウェスタン・ブロッティング、in situ染色、免疫沈降法などの免疫学的測定法でのシグナル強度を16~64倍も向上させることができます。

高いレベルでのタンパク質発現

エピトープ・タグの付加機能の他に、pCMV-3Tag Vectorは哺乳類細胞において高レベルでのタンパク質発現を実現します。クローニングされた遺伝子は、サイト・メガロウイルス(CMV)プロモーターにより、幅広い哺乳類細胞で恒常的に発現されます。また、N-末端ベクターを使用の際は、Kozak(コザック)コンセンサス配列により融合タンパク質の最適な発現をもたらします。高い発現レベルと柔軟なエピトープ・タグの付加機能により、pCMV-3Tag Vectorシリーズは、目的のタンパク質にタグを付加し解析する際の最適なツールになります。

柔軟な製品構成

FLAG®/c-MycとN-末端/C-末端の組み合わせが、それぞれ2種類のベクターであり、合計で8種類の製品を用意しています。pCMV- 3Tag-1~4は、導入された細胞へネオマイシン/カナマイシン耐性を付与し、それぞれ1塩基ずつリーディング・フレームが異なる3つのベクターを1セットとしています。3つのリーディング・フレームにより、目的の遺伝子が発現のフレームを合わせてエピトープ・タグへ融合することを可能にします。pCMV-3Tag-6~9は、安定した形質導入体の選択ができるように、ハイグロマイシン耐性遺伝子が組み込まれています。

We compared activity levels of the luciferase protein fused to one and three epitope tags.
Our pCMV-3Tag vector series provides maximum versatility in tagging orientation, multiple reading frames, and antibiotic resistance.
Western blot analysis of serial dilutions of the luciferase protein expressed with one or three copies of the FLAG® or c-Myc epitope tags. Triple epitope-tagged proteins are detected with up to 60 fold higher sensitivity than single epitope tagged proteins. Note triple tagged luciferase has a higher molecular weight than single tagged. Similar signal comparisons were seen with N-terminus tags (data not shown).
