anti-GFP Antibody

GFP

Green Fluorescent Protein

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a spontaneously fluorescent protein isolated from pacific jellyfish, Aequorea victoria. It transduces the blue chemiluminescence into green fluorescent light. Since the molecular cloning of GFP cDNA and demonstration of GFP as a functional transgene, GFP has become a powerful tool with exciting applications in developmental, cell and molecular biology. GFP fluorescence is not species specific and can be expressed in bacteria, yeast, plant and mammalian cells. GFP can fuse with proteins of interest without interfering significantly with their assembly and function.

All species

Recombinant EGFP

0.2 mg/ml

Liquid

30 µg (0.2 mg/ml) affinity purified rabbit anti-GFP polyclonal antibody in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2, containing 30% glycerol, 0.5% BSA, 0.01% thimerosal.

Affinity purified

Western blot, Immunoprecipitation

Western blotting (0.5-4 µg/ml) and in immunoprecipitation (10-20 µg/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. The antibody reacts with GFP, and its variants EGFP, RFP, YFP, and CFP, etc. Recombinant EGFP (Cat.# 4999-100), RFP (Cat.# 4997-100), YFP (Cat.# 4998-100) and CFP (Cat.# 4996-100) can be used as positive controls.

Shelf time: 12 months in temp.: -20 deg.C

gel pack

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.

This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.

If you buy Antibodies supplied by Biovision they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
