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
SHP2, also known as PTPN11, belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase(PTP) family, non-receptor class 2 subfamily. PTPs catalyze the removal of phosphate groups from tyrosine residues by the hydrolysis of phosphoric acid monoesters. They dephosphorylate EGFR, JAK2 and TYK2 kinases, promoting oncogenic transformation. SHP2 is widely expressed, with highest levels in heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. SHP2 acts downstream of various receptor and cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinases to participate in the signal transduction from the cell surface to the nucleus. It also dephosphorylates ROCK2 at Tyr-722 resulting in stimulatation of its RhoA binding activity.
