Kit for IP/ Co-IP of GFP-fusion proteins & sample preparation for mass spectrometry (MS)
| Description | The iST GFP-Trap® Kit enables researchers to process GFP-fusion proteins and their interacting partners for Mass Spectrometry analysis by including the ChromoTek GFP-Trap for immunoprecipitation/Co-IP of GFP-fusion proteins and the PreOmics iST buffers and cartridges required for bottom-up proteomic sample preparation. This robust method yields purified peptides while dramatically reducing contamination and sample loss. Each kit accommodates up to eight samples and includes pull-down reagent for controls: • Reliable dentification of GFP-fusion proteins & interacting partners by MS • Identification of even low abundant/ low expressed GFP-fusion proteins • Superior processing of IP samples into clean peptide mixtures • Intuitive protocol for reproducible results | 
| Applications | IP, MS |
