Mouse Anti-mEOS2

3S05_D

Monomeric (m)Eos2 is an engineered photoactivatable fluorescent protein widely used for superresolution microscopy. An optical highlighter isolated from another stony coral (Lobophyllia hemprichii), the tetrameric EosFP (named after the goddess of dawn in Greek mythology), behaves similarly to Kaede and the other variants described above. EosFP emits bright green fluorescence at 516 nanometers, and can be photoconverted to orange-red (581 nanometers) fluorescence when illuminated at near-ultraviolet wavelengths. Random and site-directed mutagenesis of tetrameric EosFP was used to generate two dimers and a true monomeric protein named mEosFP.
