TraKine™ Pro Live-cell Tubulin-traker kit (Red Fluorescence)

TraKine™ Pro is series of long-term super-resolution cell staining imaging portfolio for labeling subcellular structures of live and fixed cells.

• Optimized staining protocol for labeling Tubulin in mammalian living and fixed cells. The product has been tested in U-2 OS, Hela and MCF-7 cell lines. If the sample type is not included in the above cell lines, we can provide experimental services for specific cell lines.
• Especially suitable for Confocal and long-term super-resolution imaging (such as SIM, STED, TIRF).
• Proprietary LysOrange™ (Ex/Em = 565/590nm)-high specificity, low background and excellent photostability.
• Low levels of cytotoxicity.

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.

Tubulin is the major building block of microtubules. This intracellular cylindrical filamentous structure is present in almost all eukaryotic cells. Microtubules function as structural and mobile elements in mitosis, intracellular transport, flagellar movement, and in the cytoskeleton. Tubulin is a heterodimer, which consists of a-tubulin and b-tubulin; both subunits have a molecular weight of 55 kDa and share considerable homology. The most studied tubulins have been isolated from vertebrate brains. The microtubules can be viewed in immunofluorescent microscopy, which enables the observation of the intracellular organization of proteins that are in the form of a supramolecular structure.
