This fluorescent conjugate is useful for streptavidin-based fluorescent assays and visualization of the streptavidin/avidin-labeled biomolecules. Streptavidin, a protein with a high affinity to biotin, has four binding centers for biotin. The high stability of biotin/streptavidin complex gives the opportunity to build different kinds of assays. For example, a target molecule with affinity to the surface can be conjugated with biotin and immobilized on a solid surface. After it, streptavidin can be bound to the biotinylated surface and washed. Then, bound streptavidin on the surface can be visualized with the biotin-dye conjugate.
The long and hydrophilic PEG3 linker facilitates binding and decreases nonspecific interactions.
