ChromoTek Nano-Traps for fast protein pulldowns

Click2Contact

Nanobodies are small, recombinant, versatile, stable and easy to use, with many applications in immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemistry, live-cell imaging, western blot, flow cytometry, ELISA and more. Consisting of a single monomeric variable antibody domain fragment, they may be small but they still exhibit full antigen binding capacity.

Compared to conventional antibodies, nanobodies are relatively new and unknown, but that doesn’t mean that they are a niche product. They can do many things that their larger counterparts can do, along with having some advantages.

ChromoTek Nano-Traps are ready-to-use affinity beads for immunoprecipitation (IP) and allow for fast single-band pulldowns of even low-expression proteins. They consist of nanobodies coupled to a variety of resins, including agarose beads, magnetic agarose beads and magnetic particles (M-270).

The ChromoTek GFP-Trap consists of an anti-GFP VHH, derived from alpaca heavy chain antibodies. The anti-GFP VHH (nanobody) coupled to agarose beads is the GFP-Trap and is optimised for the immunoprecipitation of GFP-tagged proteins and their interacting factors.
