General description

Atto 488 is a superior fluorescence label with high molecular absorption (90.000) and quantum yield (0.80) as well as sufficient stoke′s shift. It is optimised for excitation with argon laser, and is characterized by high photo stability.
The azide modification is suitable for reactions with alkyne groups (Huisgen reaction - "Click Chemistry").

Curved membranes are an essential feature of dynamic cellular structures, including endocytic pits, filopodia protrusions and most organelles. It has been proposed that specialized proteins induce curvature by binding to membranes through two primary mechanisms: membrane scaffolding by curved proteins
