Description

General description

Streptavidin is a homotetramer protein. One molecule of streptavidin binds four molecules of biotin by a non-covalent interaction that is essentially irreversible. Streptavidin has a high affinity for biotin and is extensively used as a labeling tool and for studies involving binding proteins.

Application

Streptavidin−Cy3^™ from Streptomyces avidinii has been used:

• in double immunofluorescence staining to detect biotinylated lectin
• for insulin and C-peptide staining in immunofluorescence analysis
• in double immunofluorescence to verify the presence of cells filled with biocytin
• in conjunction with biotinylated antibodies in immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry
• with the traditional rhodamine filter arrangements due to the spectral overlap
