Yellow fluorescent protein TurboYFP

- Superbright true-yellow fluorescence
- Fast maturation
- Emission wavelength is ideally positioned between those of green and red fluorescent proteins
- Destabilized version is available
- Recommended for gene expression analysis, cell and organelle labeling

Performance and use

TurboYFP can be expressed and detected in a wide range of organisms. Mammalian cells transiently transfected with TurboYFP expression vectors give bright fluorescent signals within 8-10 hrs after transfection.

Being overexpressed in long-term culture of cells with high expression levels, TurboYFP shows slight tendency to aggregate. It might limit TurboYFP use in such experimental systems. Please use Phi-Yellow proteins for stable expression and for organelle labeling.

TurboYFP can be expressed and detected in a wide range of organisms. Mammalian cells transiently transfected with TurboYFP expression vectors give bright fluorescent signals within 8-10 hrs after transfection. No cell toxic effects are observed.

TurboYFP can be used in multicolor labeling applications with cyan, green, red, and far-red fluorescent dyes.
