Highly hydrophilic click chemistry reagent containing one dibenzocyclo-octyne (DBCO) group for strain-mediated cycloaddition reactions with azides. It features the same excitation and emission wavelengths as Cy3™ and Alexa Fluor™ 555 and can therefore be used with these filter sets. It combines high photostability and brightness.
Applications
Strain-mediated click chemistry reactions with azide-modified reagents and biomolecules.
Advantages
Perfectly suited for excitation with the 532-nm laser
Good aqueous solubility:this label does not alter the solubility of the protein conjugate
Low molecular weight: Seta 555-DBCO does not add substantial mass to the conjugates
Photostability:Higher photostability as compared to Alexa Fluor™ 555 or Cy3
Ideal for non-radioactive labeling of azide modified molecules (drugs, proteins, oligos and DNA)
