    TagFP635

Far-red fluorescent protein TagFP635

Newer version is available, please see mKate2 description.

 

- Bright far-red fluorescence
- Monomer with successful performance in fusions
- High photostability
- Fluorescent signal is easily distinguished from background fluorescence
- Recommended for protein labeling

Performance and use

TagFP635 can be easily expressed and detected in a wide range of organisms. Mammalian cells transiently transfected with TagFP635 expression vectors produce bright fluorescence in 12-14 hrs after transfection. No cell toxic effects and visible protein aggregation are observed.

TagFP use for cell labeling.

TagFP635 performance in fusions has been demonstrated in α-actinin, vinculin, zyxin, β-actin, α-tubulin, and other models.
