How to block/destroy Fc domain of an antibody?

Hi there,

does anybody have an idea how could I block/destroy Fc domain of an
antibody (primary antibody) so that it would not be recognised by
(otherwise) appropriate secondary antibody?

Would incubation with Protein A do the trick?

Thanx,

Goran

Protein A will work for IgGs only and I'm not sure if it is subtype
specific (IgG1, IgG2a,b, etc.)

Protein A will definitely not do the trick. It binds only to a small
portion of the Fc domain, and won't block a significant portion of your
secondary antibody. What you need to do is make Fab fragments using
pepsin. Protocols are available readily in textbooks.

First of all, thanx to all that answered to my question so far (hope there
will be more :-).
And now a second question:  What about biotinilation?
