Cat.No.
EGFP-003E
Species
E. coli
Product Name
Recombinant Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein, His-tagged
Product Overview
The recombinant EGFP is expressed and purified from transformed E. coli using a method that ensures high purity and maximal GFP fluorescence. Endotoxin has been removed, so the protein is suitable for in vivo injection or cell culture applications. The recombinant EGFP is a 32.7 kDa monomer with 293 amino acids tagged with 6XHis on both N- and C-terminus. Therefore, the EGFP can be detected by both His-tag antibody and GFP antibody on Western Blot analysis. The excitation and emmission spectra for the recombinant EGFP is identical to GFP purified from Aequorea Victoria, with Ex/Em = 488/507 nm (ε489 nm = 55,000 M^-1 Cm^-1; ε280 nm = 21980 M^-1Cm^-1).
Fluorescent protein ideal for subcellular labeling/visualization.
