Molecular genetic techniques are used to make a cDNA encoding a recombinant protein to which is fused a short sequence of amino acids called an epitope tagging.

Two commonly used epitope tags are FLAG, which encodes the amino acid sequence DYKDDDDK (single-letter amino acid code), and myc, which encodes the sequence EQKLISEEDL.

Fluorochrome-coupled monoclonal antibodies to the FLAG or myc epitopes can then be used to detect the recombinant protein in the cell.
