Specification

Product name TraKine™ F-actin Staining Kit (Green Fluorescence)
Applications notes Abbkine TraKine™ F-actin Staining Kit (Green Fluorescence) uses a green fluorescent (Ex/Em=490/515nm) phalloidin conjugate selectively bound to F-actins, it is much higher photostability than the other fluorescein-phalloidin conjugates. Phalloidin derivatives are convenient probes for labeling, identifying and quantitating F-actins in formaldehyde-fixed and permeabilized tissue sections, which can stain F-actins in cell cultures or cell-free experiments at nanomolar levels.

Product Properties

Kit components • Phalloidin (Green Fluorescence) (200×)
• Assay Buffer (5×)
Features & Benefits • Optimized staining protocol for labeling, identifying and quantitating F-actin in formaldehyde-fixed and permeabilized tissue sections, cell cultures or cell-free experiments.
• Proprietary Phalloidin (Green Fluorescence) (Ex/Em = 490/515 nm)-high-affinity probe for F-actins and much higher photostability than the other fluorescein-phalloidin conjugates.
Usage notes As the optimal staining conditions may vary among different cell types, we recommend that a suitable concentration of Phalloidin (Green Fluorescence) be determined.
Storage instructions Refer to list of materials supplied for storage conditions of individual components. Stable for at least 6 months at recommended temperature from date of shipment.
Shipping Gel pack with blue ice.

Additional Information

Background Phalloidin belongs to a class of toxins called phallotoxins, which are isolated from the death cap mushroom (Amanita phalloides). It is a bicyclic peptide that binds to F-actin specifically. Therefore, the distribution of F-actin can be very conveniently studied by using a fluorescent dye-labeled phalloidin. Inside the phalloidin, there is an unusual thioether bridge between cysteine and tryptophan, which can form an inner ring structure. When the pH is raised, the thioether is cleaved and the phalloidin loses its affinity for actin.
