CyDye™ DIGE Fluor
Leverantör: Cytiva
CyDye™ DIGE fluors are available as minimal and saturation labeling dyes. The minimal dyes are intended for general 2-D application use where sufficient amounts of sample are available. The saturation dyes from the Scarce Sample Labeling Kit are designed to be used for applications where only small amounts of sample are available, for example in Laser Capture Microdissection.
- Detektera upp till tre förhandsmärkta proteinprover och standarder i samma 2D-elektroforesgel
- Storleks- och laddningsmatchade färgämnen möjliggör gemensam migrering av märkta prover inom gelen
- Tydliga och mycket känsliga färgämnen gör att man kan använda minimal märkning
- Minimal signalförlust under märkning, separation och skanning
- Ingen förändring av signalen över det breda pH-område som används under separation i första dimensionen (IEF)
- Separat signal från varje färgämne med minimal överhörning bidrar till hög noggrannhet
CyDye™ DIGE fluors are exceptional dyes for multicolour analysis, offering bright and intense colours with narrow excitation and emission bands. The fluors are spectrally distinct, making them ideal for multicolour detection.
CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dyes:
Protein samples and the internal standard are each labeled with one CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dye. These labelled samples are then combined, run on an isoelectric focusing gel in the first dimension, and separated by SDS-PAGE in the second dimension.
The ability to multiplex different CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dye-labelled samples on the same gel means that the different samples will be subjected to exactly the same first- and second-dimension running conditions. Consequently, the same protein labelled with any of the CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dyes and separated on the same gel will migrate to the same position on the 2-D gel and overlay. This limits experimental variation and ensures accurate within-gel matching.
CyDye™ DIGE fluor labeling kits for scarce samples:
Protein samples and the internal standard are each labelled with one CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dye. These labelled samples are then combined, run on an isoelectric focusing gel in the first dimension, and separated by SDS-PAGE in the second dimension.
The NHS ester reactive group of CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dyes covalently attaches to the epsilon amino group of lysine of proteins via an amide linkage. The ratio of dye to protein has been designed to ensure the dyes are limiting in the reaction. As a result, approximately 3% of the available proteins are labelled and then only on a single lysine per protein (one dye per protein, or minimal labelling).
The amino acid lysine in proteins carries an intrinsic single positive charge at neutral or acidic pH. CyDye™ DIGE fluor minimal dyes also carry a single positive charge which, when coupled to the lysine, replaces the single positive charge of the lysine with its own, ensuring that the pI of the protein is not significantly altered when compared with the same unlabelled protein.
Beställningsinformation: Dimethylformamide (DMF) has to be ordered separately.
Leveransinformation: Finns antingen som separata färgämnen eller som satser med 2 nmol eller 5 nmol av vart och ett av de minimala CyDye™ DIGE Fluor-färgämnena Cy™2, Cy™3 och Cy™5.
