Myc Tag Information

A myc tag is a polypeptide protein tag derived from the c-myc gene product that can be added to a protein using recombinant DNA technology. It can be used for affinity chromatography, then used to separate recombinant, overexpressed protein from wild type protein expressed by the host organism. It can also be used in the isolation of protein complexes with multiple subunits.

A myc tag can be used in many different assays that require recognition by an antibody. If there is no antibody against the studied protein, adding a myc-tag allows one to follow the protein with an antibody against the Myc epitope. Examples are cellular localization studies by immunofluorescence or detection by Western blotting.

The peptide sequence of the myc-tag is: N-EQKLISEEDL-C (1202 Da). It can be fused to the C-terminus and the N-terminus of a protein. It is advisable not to fuse the tag directly behind the signal peptide of a secretory protein, since it can interfere with translocation into the secretory pathway.

Background Information
OY-TES-1 is a member of CT antigens, which was originally identified as the human homologue of proacrosin binding protein sperm protein 32 precursor. OY-TES-1 mRNA was expressed not only in testis but also in different malignant tissues, including bladder, breast, lung, liver, colon and epithelial ovarian cancers. About 3.5% to 10.5% of cancer patients have developed humoral immune response to OY-TES-1. A HLA-A24-binding peptide was identified and recognized by CD8+ T-cell, and thus caused cytotoxicity to tumor cells expressing OY-TES-1. More recently, researches indicated that OY-TES-1 normalized mitotic spindle function to promote cancer cell proliferation, and expressed in mesenchymal stem cells. In the mouse, two functional forms of OY-TES-1 were produced by pre-mRNA alternative splicing, and may play different role in spermiogenesis and fertilization.
