The aldehyde tag is a short peptide tag which can be introduced into fusion proteins and by subsequent treatment with the formylglycine-generating enzyme (FGE) a reactive aldehyde group is generated for further coupling. Since there already is an array of aldehyde-specific reagents commercially available (such as aminooxy or hydrazide reagents), possible applications are diverse and include the conjugation of fluorophores, glycans, PEG (polyethylene glycol) chains or reactive groups for further synthesis (see applications).
