GFP is a common fusion protein tag that enables protein expression to be monitored, quantified, and localized within the complex environment of the cell (Lippincott-Schwarz 2001). Anti-GFP antibodies enable the detection of GFP fusion proteins, offering utility under conditions that could preclude the tag's use.
Jackson ImmunoResearch AffiniPure® Rabbit Anti-GFP is an affinity-purified polyclonal antibody raised in rabbit. It offers versatile detection of Aequorea victoria Green Fluorescent Protein (avGFP) and its derivatives, including EGFP, ECFP, and EYFP, across many applications. The antibody's polyclonal format provides significant signal amplification and is available conjugated to a range of reporter molecules, including Alexa Fluor® dyes.
I'm excited that Jackson ImmunoResearch Anti-GFP antibodies have arrived. The utility of this antibody specificity, combined with the flexibility and reliability that our antibodies consistently offer, will benefit users. Researchers can now use our products across more applications, from robust protein screening, through to super resolution microscopy. Delivering such a powerful product is exciting because we strive to help our customers achieve their goals."
