GAL4-TA Antibody (C-10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b kappa light chain antibody that detects GAL4-TA through western blotting (WB) and immunoprecipitation (IP). anti-GAL4-TA antibody (C-10) is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. GAL4, derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a well-studied transcriptional activator known for its critical role in gene expression regulation. One key aspect of GAL4 is forming specific protein-protein interactions, particularly with other transcription factors and co-activators, which is essential for transcriptional activation. These interactions facilitate recruitment of transcriptional machinery to target genes, enhancing gene expression. GAL4′s versatility in forming fusions with various activating domains has led to widespread use in developing innovative experimental systems, such as the "two-hybrid" system, which allows researchers to explore and identify specific protein interactions in yeast, plants, insects, and mammalian cells. GAL4-TA (C-10) antibody serves as an invaluable tool for researchers investigating transcriptional regulation and protein interactions.

I am looking for a GAL4-TA antibody that will work for both Western blot and ChIP applications. Should I purchase sc-1663 X for this?

Asked by: Trav11
Thank you for your question. Generally, we only recommend purchasing the “X” form if you are going to be using the antibody primarily for ChIP or Gel Supershift. As you are looking for an antibody that can be used for both Western blot and ChIP, I would recommend purchasing the standard form (sc-1663). If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our Technical Service department by calling 800-457-3801 option 2, emailing scbt@scbt.com, or using the Live Chat function on our website.
