General description

Atto 647N is a superior red-emitting fluorescence dye with a strong absorption, excellent fluorescence quantum yield (65%), high photostability, excellent ozone resistance, good solubility, and very little triplet formation.

Application

Atto 647N belongs to a new generation of fluorescent labels for the red spectral region. The dye is designed for application in the area of life science, e.g. labeling of DNA, RNA or proteins. Characteristic features of the label are strong absorption, excellent fluorescence quantum yield, high photostability, excellent ozone resistance, good solubility, and very little triplet formation. Atto 647N is a cationic dye. The active ester of Atto 647N fluorescence dye reacts with amino groups under mild conditions. After coupling to a substrate the dye carries a net electrical charge of +1. In common with most Atto-labels, absorption and fluorescence are independent of pH in the range of 2 to 11, used in typical applications. As supplied Atto 647N consists of a mixture of two isomers with practically identical absorption and fluorescence properties.

We report a simple single-molecule fluorescence imaging method that increases the temporal resolution of any type of array detector by >5-fold with full field-of-view. We spread single-molecule spots to adjacent pixels by rotating a mirror in the detection path during

We develop a Bayesian nonparametric framework to analyze single molecule FRET (smFRET) data. This framework, a variation on infinite hidden Markov models, goes beyond traditional hidden Markov analysis, which already treats photon shot noise, in three critical ways: (1) it

Modern fluorescence microscopy applications go along with increasing demands for the employed fluorescent dyes. In this work, we compared antifading formulae utilizing a recently developed reducing and oxidizing system (ROXS) with commercial antifading agents. To systematically test fluorophore performance in

Methods for targeting of small molecules to cellular proteins can allow imaging with fluorophores that are smaller, brighter, and more photostable than fluorescent proteins. Previously, we reported targeting of the blue fluorophore coumarin to cellular proteins fused to a 13-amino
