Biology and Usage

This part codes for 3x human influenza hemagglutinin (HA) molecule and is fused with a stop codon (taa) at the C-terminus.

HA tag: An HA-tag is derived from the human influenza hemagglutinin (HA) molecule corresponding to amino acids 98-106. It has been extensively used as a general epitope tag in expression vectors. The HA-tag does not appear to interfere with the bioactivity of the recombinant HA-tagged protein. [1]

Purification: The HA-tagged protein binds to the HA-tag specific monoclonal antibody conjugated on an agarose gel. After washing away residual impurities, bound HA-tag proteins can be eluted off the affinity column by high concentration of the HA-tag peptide or by low pH buffer. An EK cleavage site behind the HA-tag (HA-EK site-protein structure) can allow complete removal of the HA-tag and the cleavage site, leaving no additional amino acids after the specific cleavage of the HA-tag.
