Background:

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a 27 a protein derived from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria, which emits green light (emission peak at a wavelength of 509 nm) when excited by blue light (excitation peak at a wavelength of 395 nm). GFP has become an invaluable tool in cell biology research, since its intrinsic fluorescence can be visualized in living cells. GFP fluorescence is stable under fixation conditions and suitable for a variety of applications. GFP has been widely used as a reporter for gene expression, enabling researchers to visualize and localize GFP-tagged proteins within living cells without the need for chemical staining. Other applications of GFP include assessment of protein protein interactions through the yeast two hybrid system and measurement of distance between proteins through fluorescence energy transfer (FRET) protocols.

Specificity:

GFP-tag (3A10) mAb-HRP detects over-expressed or recombinant proteins containing the GFP epitope tag.

Alternative names:

Green fluorescent protein

Species reactivity:

All

Host:

Mouse

Ig type:

1mg/ml in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol, pH7.2

Immunogen:

Synthetic peptide GFP-tag.

Purification & Purity:

Antibodies were immunoaffinity purified using the peptide conjugated to a solid-phase support and conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
