Clone: F56-BA1.2.3
Background: Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) from Jellyfish (Aequorea Victoria) is a 27kDa protein that provides strong visible fluorescence. GFP can be used as a reporter of gene expression, a tracer of cell lineage, and a fusion tag to monitor protein localization from living cells. It can also be used to access protein-protein interactions in yeast two hybrid systems and measure distances between proteins in fluorescence energy transfer (FRET).
Positive Control: Purified Green Fluorescent Protein
Purification Method: Protein A/G Chromatography
Concentration: See vial for concentration
Source: Hybridoma produced by the fusion of splenocytes of mice immunized with full-length green fluorescent protein and mouse myeloma cells.
