CoralHueMitochondria-targeted mKeima-Red (pMT-mKeima-Red)

MBL Life Sciences

Catalog No.: MBL-AM-V0251M

Product Description

This plasmid is designed for expression of Mitochondria-targeted CoralHue^™ monomeric Keima-Red (MT-targeted mKeima-Red) in mammalian cells. CoralHueTM Keima-Red has been cloned from the stony coral, whose Japanese name is “Komon-Sango”. A monomeric version of CoralHueTM Keima-Red (mKeima-Red) absorbs light maximally at 440 nm and emits red light at 620 nm with a large Storks-shift, providing another option for multicolor fluorescence analyses. Targeting of mKeima-Red to the mitochondria is achieved with the signal peptide fused to the N-terminus of mKeima-Red.
