Protein translocation


Detect stimulation of signaling pathways by following translocation of reporter proteins.


How it works:
The protein of interest is expressed as a SNAP-tag fusion in the host cell and labeled using cell-permeable SNAP-cell substrates. Translocation upon stimulation is followed by fluorescent microscopy.
Advantages:
- Easy change of fluorophore.
- License for commercial use included.
