mCherry, red fluorescent protein, is derived from DsRed, a red fluorescent protein from disc corals of the Discosoma species. It is a monomeric form that has been designed with multiple cycles of mutation, directed modification, and evolutionary selection.
It exhibits an excitation maximum at 587 nm and an emission maximum at 610 nm with a fluorescent quantum yield of 0.22. mCherry shows high photostability and resistance to photobleaching. It also shows improved gloss and an extremely fast 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).
Clone 1C51 detects the mCherry protein in multiple species.
His-tagged full-length recombinant MCherry.
