Recombinant mRuby antibody (Alexa Fluor 647)

Catalog No. ABIN6953280

Product Details

Target: mRuby

Antibody Type: Recombinant Antibody

Fragment: single-domain Antibody (sdAb)

Reactivity: Entacmaea quadricolor

Host: Alpaca

Expression System: E.coli

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: Alexa Fluor 647

Application: Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Purpose: Camelid sdAb anti-mRuby conjugated with Alexa647, Clone 1F8

Specificity: Recognizes mRuby, mRuby3 and common mRuby derivates.

Characteristics: A dye conjugated alpaca single-domain antibody (sdAb), also referred to as VHH or nanobody. It is in the range of 15 kDa and 3 nm in molecular weight and size respectively. This means that sdAbs are ten times lighter and up to 5x smaller than a conventional IgG molecule. They can position a fluorophore up to 20 nm closer to the intended target than using conventional primary-secondary antibody complex detection.

Purification: Produced in: E.coli

Clone: 1F8

Labeling Ratio: Two site-specifically conjugated fluorophores per sdAb.

Application Details

Application Notes: Recommended dilution 1:500

Comment:

Two site-specifically coupled fluorophores per molecule. The reagent can therefore simultaneously target two fluorophores to your protein of interest, which results in enhanced image brightness. Owing to the small size of the sdAb, the distance between the target epitope and each fluorophore is below 4 nm. In comparison to conventional detection systems using conventional antibodies, this sdAb can thus improve the localization accuracy by 10-15 nm. Both features - enhanced brightness and precise fluorophore placement - renders this product superior tools for all microscopy techniques.
