Abstract:
:Epitope tagging has provided a useful experimental strategy with widespread applicability. The ample variety of epitope tag systems that have been put to use to date provide a collection of attributes relevant to virtually any experimental system. As a consequence, epitope tagging will continue to be a valuable tool for molecular biologists long into the future.
