Q: We are looking for a rabbit anti-GFP antibody as a primary antibody for immunofluorescence and WB. I've seen that you carry several anti-GFP antibodies and I would like to ask which one you would recommend. The one with Cat.No NB600-308 has been used in a lot of publications and I reckon it is a solid antibody. Is this our best choice, or is there a better alternative?

A: NB600-308 is an excellent GFP antibody and I think it would work very well for you. It has been reviewed and published with which usually makes our customer feel much more confident, seeing as it worked in other people's hand.

Background: GFP

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a 27 kDa protein derived from the bioluminescent jellyfish Aquorea Victoria. GFP can be excited by light in the blue to ultraviolet spectrum and has an excitation peak at 395 nm with an emission peak at 509 nm in the green spectrum. GFP autocatalytically forms a fluorescent pigment from natural amino acids present in the nascent protein. GFP is widely used as a reporter (tag) for gene expression, enabling researchers to visualize and localize GFP-tagged proteins within living cells without the need for chemical staining. GFP fluorescence is stable under fixation conditions and antibodies are suitable for a variety of applications including ELISA, ICC/IF, IHC, IP and WB (1-3).
