Can I digest rat IgG2a with FabRICATOR Z?

Unfortunately, FabRICATOR Z does not digest rat IgG2a. If generating Fab fragments is an option, we suggest using FabULOUS enzyme that digests rat IgG2a. FabULOUS does not have a single specific cleavage site, but a primary digestion site, so there can be more than one digestion site. The digestion site(s) for rat IgG2a using FabULOUS is not determined, but the generated fragments are Fab and Fc.

Can I digest all mouse IgG subclasses with FabRICATOR Z?

No, FabRICATOR Z only digests mouse IgG2a (….CPAPNLLG / GPSVF.. ) and IgG3 (…CPAPNILG / GPSVF…) at one specific site below the hinge. If Fab fragments are an option, we recommend our FabULOUS enzyme that digest mouse IgG1 above the hinge. FabULOUS requires light reducing conditions for optimal activity. If strong reducing conditions are used, this may likely cause reduction of the interchain disulfides.
