GFP sdAb - FluoTag-X4 - N0304-At488-L

GFP is a widely used green fluorescent protein tag

 

This product was developed by   

NanoTag-Biotechnologies

Camelid single domain antibodies (sdAbs) consist only of one antigen binding site of an Alpaca heavy chain antibody. With only ~15 kDa, these Tags are about 10-times smaller than conventional IgG antibody molecules.

Camelid single domain antibody

Cat. No.: N0304-At488-L
Amount: 200 µl

Cat. No. N0304-At488-L 200 µl purified antibody, lyophilized from PBS, fluorescence-labeled with ATTO® 488.

For many of the fluorescence labeled antibodies conjugated to ATTO® dyes from ATTO-TEC the established fluorescence detection systems can be used.

ATTO® 488: λex 500 nm / λem 520 nm
ATTO® 550: λex 554 nm / λem 576 nm
ATTO® 565: λex 564 nm / λem 590 nm
ATTO® 594: λex 603 nm / λem 626 nm

Background

Green fluorescent protein GFP and its derivates have become very popular and universal tools in cell biology. It is a monomeric and fast maturating protein with high photostability. Due to its sensitivity to pH changes it can be used as a biological pH indicator.

 

Unlabeled variants and several modifications of sdAbs like biotin, fluorophore or DBCO conjugation are available.

 

In FluoTag®-Q each fluorophore is coupled to exactly one FluoTag, which in turn binds to its target molecule in a monovalent fashion. The high binding affinity and a coupling efficiency of > 95% guarantees a highly linear relation between the number of target molecules and the intensity of fluorescence. This enables a direct count of the target molecule of interest. The fluorophore is located exceptionally close to the recognized epitope (< 1.5 nm), which is ideal for all microscopy techniques.

In FluoTag®-X two fluorophore molecules are site-specifically coupled to each FluoTag molecule. Therefore, the reagent simultaneously targets up to four fluorophores (in X4 variants) to the protein of interest, which ensures extra-bright signals. Owing to the small size of the FluoTags, the distance between the target epitope and each fluorophore is ~ 3 nm.
In comparison to detection systems using conventional antibodies, FluoTag-X can thus improve the localization accuracy by 10-15 nm. Both features - superior brightness and precise fluorophore placement - render the FluoTag-X products excellent tools for all microscopy techniques.
