Anti-G-quadruplex, Recombinant [BG4]

Invented by Shankar Balasubramanian , John McCafferty , David Tannahill , Giulia Biffi
Invented at University of Cambridge

Info

Applications ELISA IF ChIP-seq
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets DNA/RNA G-quadruplex structures in human cells
Reactivity Human
Relevance BG4 is an engineered, structure-specific antibody probe that binds with high selectivity and low nanomolar affinity to DNA G-quadruplex structures can can be employed to visualize DNA G-quadruplex structures in the genomic DNA of human cells.
BG4 has high affinity for intramolecular and intermolecular DNA G-quadruplexes (Kd 0.5 – 1.6 nM, and 2.0 nM respectively) with no detectable binding to a RNA hairpin, single-stranded or double-stranded DNA.
Immunogen BG4, a single-chain antibody, was isolated from the Sanger phage display library through selection using a panel of intramolecular G-quadruplex structures.
