Product Description

Key Information:

Janelia Fluor® 646, NHS ester is a red fluorogenic fluorescent dye; supplied with an NHS ester reactive group for the labeling of primary amines. Suitable for live cell imaging.

Application: Suitable for flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, super resolution microscopy (SRM) techniques including dSTORM (in both live and fixed cells) and STED. Cell permeable.

Properties and Photophysical Data: NHS ester can be converted to relevant substrate for use in self-labeling tag systems, e.g. HaloTag® and SNAP-tag®. Can be multiplexed for two color imaging with Janelia Fluor® 549 NHS ester (Cat. No. 6147). Excitation and emission maxima (λ) are 646 nm and 664 nm, respectively; quantum yield = 0.54; extinction coefficient = 152,000 M-1cm-1 (measured in TFE plus 0.1% TFA); A280 correction factor = 0.19; lactone-zwitterion equilibrium constant (KL-Z) = 0.0012.

Please see the protocol for further information on protein/antibody labeling and conjugation.

We recommend that stock solutions of this dye are prepared in anhydrous DMF.

To measure the absorbance spectrum of this dye we recommend the following solvent: ethanol or trifluoroethanol plus 0.1% TFA.

We also offer custom conjugation antibody services.

Super-resolution imaging of methylated histones (H3K9me3) in a COS-7 cell line

Super-resolution imaging of methylated histones (H3K9me3) in a COS-7 cell line.

COS-7 cells were fixed and stained with rabbit anti-histone H3K9me3 (Active Motif, Catalog # 39062, 1:1000 dilution) followed by Janelia Fluor® 646 labelled anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) secondary antibody (Novus, Catalog # NBP1-75335, 1:2000 dilution). Super-resolution images were acquired with the Sysmex HM-1000. Images were acquired as 20000 frame stack files with 30 msec. exposure time and image was constructed using HM-1000 software or ThunderSTORM.

Application of Janelia Fluor® 646, NHS ester in Cardiac Tissue.

Super-resolution image (dSTORM) of muscle tissue from the left ventricle of an adult pig heart. Janelia Fluor 646, NHS ester was used to label collagen VI, which is present on the cell plasma membrane, and imaged with a 642 nm excitation laser. A clearer structure is achieved in comparison with the widefield image (top right). Scale: 2 μm.Image kindly provided by Prof. Christian Soeller, University of Exeter; acquired by Alex Clowsley and Anna Meletiou.

    I used this dye for labeling bacterial proteins in vitro. The labeling method is pretty straight-forward as for any NHS-protein coupling. The dye is highly photostable as determined by single protein tracking on lipid bilayers (image of single proteins attached, scale bar is 5 micron). The only reason I give the product 4 stars instead of 5 is the packaging. The dye is shipped as a solid in a glass bottle with a flexible rubber cap. Most of the dye gets stuck inside and on the surface of this cap; thus not delivering a full value for money. I will highly recommend the manufacturers to use bottles with plastic caps so that the dye can be recovered a 100%
