Recombinant Yellow Fluorescent Protein

• Cat.No.: YFP-007E
• Product Overview: The recombinant YFP (Yellow Fluorescent Protein) is expressed and purified from transformed E. coli using a method that ensures high purity and maximal YFP fluorescence. Endotoxin has been removed, so the protein is suitable for in vivo injection or cell culture applications. The protein is a 26.4 kDa monomer with 238 amino acids, Ex./Em. = 525/538 nm, extinction coefficient 27390.
  Fluorescent protein ideal for subcellular labeling/visualization

Specification

• Description: Yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) is a genetic mutant of green fluorescent protein (GFP) originally derived from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria. Its excitation peak is 514 nm and its emission peak is 527 nm. Like the parent GFP, YFP is a useful tool in cell and molecular biology thanks to its properties useful for fluorescence microscopy.
