Self-Labeling Protein Tag Ligands
Self-labeling protein tags are small proteins or peptides that can covalently attach themselves to specific chemical labels or probes, enabling researchers to track or manipulate the protein in various applications. Some commonly used self-labeling tags include HaloTag, SNAP-tag, CLIP-tag, SpyTag, Sortase Tag, etc. These tags allow for highly specific labeling with minimal background signal. They can be used in a range of applications, from fluorescence imaging to protein purification. Many self-labeling tags can be used in living cells without disrupting cellular processes. Tenova Pharma offers a wide rang of ligands for self-labeling protein tags.
