Immunogen Sequence: FITC conjugated to KLH
FITC (Fluorescein Isothiocyanate), 5-FAM (5-Carboxyfluorescein), and 6-FAM (6-Carboxyfluorescein) are commonly used gene targets for fluorescent labeling in molecular biology research. These dyes belong to the fluorescein family and emit a green fluorescence when excited by specific wavelengths of light. FITC, 5-FAM, and 6-FAM are utilized in various techniques such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and DNA sequencing. By attaching these dyes to gene-specific probes or primers, researchers can visualize and detect gene expression levels, identify specific DNA or RNA sequences, and study cellular processes. The compatibility of FITC, 5-FAM, and 6-FAM with different imaging systems and their bright green fluorescence make them valuable tools in molecular biology, aiding in the understanding of gene function and cellular dynamics.
