General description

mCherry, red fluorescent protein, is derived from DsRed, a red fluorescent protein from disc corals of Discosoma species. It is monomeric form that has been engineered with multiple cycles of mutation, directed modification and evolutionary selection. It exhibits excitation maximum at 587 nm and an emission maximum at 610 nm with a fluorescent quantum yield of 0.22. mCherry displays high photostability and resistant to photobleaching. It also displays improved brightness and extremely rapid maturation rate. Anti-mCherry, clone1C51 is an affinity purified antibody that recognizes mCherry in HEK293 cells transfected with pFin-EF1-mCherry. (Ref.: Schaner, NC et al. (2004). Nat. Biotechnol. 22(12):1567-72).

Specificity

Clone 1C51 detects mCherry protein in multiple species.

Immunogen

His-tagged full length recombinant mCherry.

Application

Anti-mCherry Antibody, clone IC51, Cat. No. MAB131873 detects mCherry protein and is tested for use in Immunocytochemistry and Western Blotting.
Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected mCherry in Western Blotting applications (Krajcovic, M., et. al. (2013). Mol Biol Cell. 24(23):3736-45).
