BackgroundRed fluorescent proteins (RFPs) is a collective term referring to a heterogenous group of red chromophore-carrying proteins, originating from various species and forming different protein lineages.
The original RFP (dsRed) is a 225 amino acid fluorescent protein (25.9 kDa) derived from Discosoma sp.. It emits red light with a peak wavelength of 593 nm upon excitation by green light (excitation peak at 558 nm).
When fused with other proteins, RFP serves as a versatile reporter protein e.g. for quantifying expression levels or facilitates visualization of subcellular localization through fluorescence microscopy.
This Nanobody is an alpaca recombinant VHH raised against RFP, reactive to a variety of RFP derivates, including mCherry, mRFP, mRFPRuby, TagRFP, mKate2, mPlum, mApple, DsRed, and tdTomato.
