General description

Chromeo P503 labels proteins and peptides by exhibiting a color change from blue to red upon binding to primary amines. Chromeo P503 displays a weak fluorescence with a quantum yield <1% in solution. After conjugation to a primary amine group, the label undergoes a shortwave spectral shift of >100 nm and the quantum yield rises to 50%. This property allows a distinct detection of primary amines, proteins, and other biomolecules.

Application

Chromeo P503 is used as a fluorogenic reagent to label primary amine groups within molecules such as proteins. Chromeo P503 labeled proteins may be studied in a variety of gel electrophoresis and chromatographic applications.

Caution

To ensure stability, the lyophilized dye should be stored at 4°C in the dark. This product is guaranteed for 6 months from the date of arrival.

CIEF and CZE are coupled with LIF detection to create an ultrasensitive 2-D separation method for proteins. In this method, two capillaries are joined through a buffer-filled interface. Separate power supplies control the potential at the injection end of the

We have coupled CIEF with an LIF detector that is based on a post-column sheath flow cuvette. We employed Chromeo P503 as a fluorogenic reagent to label proteins before analysis. This reagent reacts with the epsilon-amine of lysine residues, preserving

The spectroscopic and electrophoretic properties of proteins labeled with Chromeo P503 were investigated. Its photobleaching characteristics were determined by continually infusing Chromeo P503-labeled alpha-lactalbumin into a sheath-flow cuvette and monitored fluorescence as a function of laser power. The labeled protein

Methods of kinetic capillary electrophoresis (KCE) facilitate highly efficient selection of DNA aptamers for protein targets. The inability to detect native proteins at low concentrations in capillary electrophoresis creates, however, a significant obstacle for many important protein targets. Here we
