Description
-
Goat polyclonal antibody to tdTomato (red fluorescent protein). tdTomato protein is derived from DsRed, an engineered red fluorescent protein from so-called disc corals of the genus Discosoma. It is a genetic fusion of two copies of the dTomato gene, which has been specifically designed for low aggregation. It´s brightness and emission wavelength, makes it ideal for live animal research.

Specificity
-
In 293HEK cells transfected with cds plasmid detects a band of 55 kDa by Western blot. It also detects tdTomato in brain sections by IHC. This antibody (AB8181) is specific for tdTomato and mCherry proteins. It does not cross-react to GFP (green fluorescent protein).
-
Storage
-
For continuous use, store at 2-8 C for one-two days. For extended storage, store in -20 C freezer. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
-
Special instructions
-
The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
