CUTANA™ Uncharged pAG-Tn5 for CUT&Tag
78 in stock
Products in EpiCypher’s IDEA Toolbox (Innovation and Discovery of Epigenetic Applications) offer access to reagents without known or fully defined uses, enabling researchers to explore cutting-edge applications. Due to their novelty and unexplored potential, EpiCypher will engage in limited technical support.
CUTANA Uncharged pAG-Tn5 is a fusion of Proteins A and G to E. coli transposase (Tn5) and is the key enzyme for CUT&Tag [1]. This product is highly purified to remove contaminating E. coli DNA. For superior normalization, as well as antibody validation and reaction monitoring, SNAP-CUTANA™ nucleosome spike-ins (e.g. EpiCypher 19-1002) are recommended. This Tn5 is uncharged and must be loaded with user-designed mosaic adapter DNA prior to use in CUT&Tag. For a charged enzyme that is ready to use, see EpiCypher 15-1017.

Formulation
50 mM HEPES-KOH pH 7.2, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 0.1% Triton X-100, 50% glycerol
Application Notes
pAG-Tn5 transposomes can be assembled as previously described [1]. In brief, 3.2 µL of a 100 µM equimolar mixture of pre-annealed user-defined Adapter-A and user-defined Adapter-B oligonucleotides should be mixed with 20 µL of 5.5 µM pAG-Tn5 fusion protein dimer. The mixture is then incubated on a rotating platform for 1 hour at room temperature and stored at -20°C. Specific activity definition of the charged pAG-Tn5 is highly recommended before use in CUT&Tag. Due to the confounding variable of user-supplied mosaic adapters, EpiCypher will not engage in protocol troubleshooting for this reagent. For a pre-charged enzyme that is eligible for technical support, see EpiCypher 15-1017.
