Product Description
Ghost pen cyclic peptide is a cyclic peptide extracted from a fungus Amanita Dhalloides. It competes with F-actin binding. Fluorescent labeled ghost pen peptides can selectively bind to F-actin at nanogram levels and are easily soluble in water, providing a very convenient labeling method for detecting actin localization and quantification in tissue sections, cultured cells, and cell-free systems.
This product is a ghost pen cyclic peptide labeled with Alexa Fluor 555, which can emit high brightness and stable orange fluorescence. It has strong staining reaction specificity and high contrast, making it suitable for qualitative and quantitative detection of F-actin. Compared with Actin antibodies, Alexa Fluor 555 ghost pen peptide has the following advantages: (1) it binds one-to-one to actin subunits and does not bind to G-actin, resulting in better staining effect than Actin antibodies. (2) And the combination of this product has no species differences and has a wide range of applicability. (3) The non-specific signal of ghost pen cyclic peptide labeling can be ignored, resulting in good contrast in the image. (4) Staining is fully compatible with other fluorescent staining methods used for cell analysis, including fluorescent proteins, Qdot ® nanocrystals, and other Alexa Fluor conjugates (including Alexa Fluor conjugated secondary antibodies). (5) After binding with this product, F-actin can still maintain many biological characteristics of actin itself.
