Description
Anti-Flag affinity purification gel (secretory protein or Membrane Protein) is prepared by covalent coupling of high-quality mouse IgG2b monoclonal antibody (clone number: 3F5) and 4% highly cross-linked agarose gel. This product has a high loading capacity of Flag-tagged fusion protein (at least 1.1 mg protein/mL gel) and less non-specific binding of impurities. It can be used for purification and immunoprecipitation (IP) of fusion proteins (secretory protein or membrane protein) with Flag tags.
Anti-Flag affinity purification gel (secretory protein or Membrane Protein) can bind to Met-modified N-terminal Flag fusion protein (Met-FLAG–Protein), N-terminal Flag fusion protein (FLAG–Protein), and C-terminal Flag fusion protein (Protein-FLAG).
Features
- High specificity: High-quality mouse IgG2b monoclonal antibody is used, which can specifically adsorb the Flag protein sequence.
- High loading capacity: Loading capacity ≥ 1.1 mg protein/mL gel.
- High purity: Less non-specific binding of impurities, resulting in high-purity Flag-tagged protein.
- Wide range of uses: Can be used for protein purification or IP.
- Multiple types of binding proteins: Can bind to Met-modified N-terminal Flag fusion protein (Met-Flag–Protein), N-terminal Flag fusion protein (Flag–Protein), C-terminal Flag fusion protein (Protein-Flag)

FAQ
Q: If the protein is to remain active, which substances should be used for elution?
A: Non-denaturing elution method can be used.
Q: How does this product compare with those from the imported manufacturers?
A: The protein binding capacity of Yeasen 20585 is nearly twice that of the imported S* brand.

Q: We used the flag peptide for elution, but it couldn't be completely removed?
A: The loading capacity of the medium is already relatively low, and the elution concentration might be quite low. There is a possibility that due to the low concentration, no distinct bands will be visible. It is recommended to increase the elution intensity in the next step.

The key difference is the matrix: MagBeads use superparamagnetic polymer beads enabling magnetic separation (no centrifugation needed, fast processing); Affinity Gel uses 4% highly cross-linked agarose (Sepharose-type) separated by gravity flow or low-speed centrifugation. The Affinity Gel (clone 3F5) is particularly designed for secretory and membrane proteins and provides a higher binding capacity (≥1.1 mg/mL gel).
Yes — the Anti-Flag Affinity Gel (clone 3F5) is specifically noted for purification of secretory and membrane proteins, in addition to intracellular proteins. The agarose matrix is compatible with mild detergent conditions (e.g., DDM, digitonin) commonly used to solubilize membrane proteins, though detergent compatibility should be validated for your specific conditions.
Preferred: competitive elution with Flag peptide (DYKDDDDK) at 100–500 µg/mL in wash buffer — provides native, functional protein. Alternative: low pH (glycine, pH 3.0–3.5) for non-peptide elution; neutralize immediately after collection. Flag peptide elution is gentler and better preserves protein activity.
Yes — agarose-based affinity gels can typically be regenerated for multiple uses. After elution, wash with 5–10 column volumes of low-pH buffer, then re-equilibrate with TBS. Regeneration efficiency decreases over repeated use. The gel should be stored in TBS with 50% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide at 2–8°C between uses.
Store at 2–8°C for 1 year. Do not freeze without glycerol — cryopreservation in solutions without glycerol is prohibited. Storage buffer: TBS, 50% glycerol, pH 7.4, 0.02% sodium azide.
