> I want to put a tag at either end of a gene of interest, and then
express this gene in Mouse T cells. Finally, I want to recover the
expressed fusion protein with the monoclonal antibody against this
tag. I do not want my fusion protein to be contaminated with other
proteins from T cells (I mean the monoclonal antibody has negligible
cross reactivity with other proteins from T cells). Which tag is the
best for this purpose? Please help me make this decision? Thanks.

We use flag and HA tag, both work well. The flag tag is the one we use
most of the time.
