This product is a hydrazide derivative of AF 488 dye. Hydrazides efficiently react with aldehydes and ketones, resulting in hydrazones, so that this compound can be used for conjugation with carbonyl derivatives of biomolecules.
The reaction runs in aqueous conditions, which is important when working with antibodies and proteins. Cys-diol groups in sugars in glycosylated proteins and antibodies can be oxidized into dialdehydes, and cysteine in proteins can be converted with enzymes to formyl glycerol (i. e. reactive groups for conjugation with hydrazides). Carboxyl groups of aspartic and glutamic acids in proteins and peptides can also be conjugated with hydrazides in the presence of activating agents: carbodiimide (EDAC) or methyl morpholine (DMTMM) derivatives.
AF 488 is a bright and photostable dye. Due to its high hydrophilicity, this is a dye of choice for the labeling of sensitive proteins and antibodies. The dye is useful for many demanding applications, including microscopy.
AF 488 is a sulfonated rhodamine dye Rhodamine 110 (R110). Like other rhodamines, it is available as 5- and 6-isomers, which have almost identical photophysical properties. The isomers need to be separated, otherwise, the use of mixed isomer dye can lead to doubled peaks during HPLC or electrophoresis separations of the labeled products. This product is an isomerically pure 5-AF 488.
