Scientific Data Images for mCherry Antibody
Western Blot: mCherry Antibody [NBP2-43727]
Western Blot: mCherry Antibody [NBP2-43727] - Non-transfected (-) and transfected (+) 293T whole cell extracts (30 ug) were separated by 7.5% SDS-PAGE, and the membrane was blotted with mCherry antibody diluted at 1:1000. The HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG antibody (NBP2-19301) was used to detect the primary antibody.Immunoprecipitation: mCherry Antibody [NBP2-43727]
Immunoprecipitation: mCherry Antibody [NBP2-43727] - Analysis of 293T whole cell lysate/extractA : 20 ug whole cell lysate/extract of mcherry protein expressing 293T cellsB : Control with 2.5 ug of pre-immune rabbit IgGC : Immunoprecipitation of mcherry protein by 2.5 ug of mcherry antibody 7.5% SDS-PAGE The immunoprecipitated mcherry protein was detected by mcherry antibody diluted at 1 : 3000.

Background: mCherry
mCherry can be used as a long-wavelength hetero-FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) acceptor and probe for homoFRET experiments given its high peak molar absorptivity, folding efficiency, and superior spectral properties (4). Additionally, because mCherry does not interfere with other plasmids or alter the growth of Legionella species during intracellular growth, it can be used for constitutive gene expression in a variety of gram-negative bacterial species (5). For example, a plasmid developed to constitutively express mCherry under the Ptac promoter has been used in several Legionella species including L. pneumophila, the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease (5).
