AcGFP1 fluorescent protein

AcGFP1 (Aequorea coerulescens GFP) is a monomeric green fluorescent protein with spectral properties similar to those of EGFP. Although AcGFP1 and EGFP sequences have 94% homology at the amino acid level and equivalent brightness, AcGFP1 is a superior alternative for fusion applications because it is a monomer. In contrast, the Aequorea victoria GFP and EGFP form dimers (Jain et al. 2001, Chen et al. 2002). The monomeric nature of AcGFP1 has been confirmed by FPLC gel filtration chromatography, sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation, and pseudonative gel electrophoresis. (Click the Image Data button in the product table below to view data.)

39 AcGFP is covered by U.S. Patent No. 7,432,053.

pIRES2-AcGFP1-Nuc encodes AcGFP1 with three identical copies of the nuclear localization signal (NLS) of the simian virus 40 large T antigen fused in tandem to its C-terminus. The gene encoding the AcGFP1-Nuc fusion protein is located downstream of the IRES2 sequence. This permits both the gene of interest (cloned into the MCS upstream of the IRES2 sequence) and the AcGFP1-Nuc gene to be translated from a single bicistronic mRNA. AcGFP-1-Nuc localizes to the nucleus of a transfected cell, offering an advantage over random localization in the cytosol. It is most useful for those who are interested in monitoring translocation events in and out of the nucleus.

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein. Panel A. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by FPLC gel filtration chromatography. Overall protein absorbance (A280) and chromophore excitation (A477) of the eluted material were monitored simultaneously. AcGFP1 elutes from the column at a retention time corresponding to a molecular weight of 24 kDa. The calculated molecular weight of AcGFP1 is 26.9 kDa. Panel B. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by sucrose density ultracentrifugation using a continuous gradient. Panel C. Pseudonative gel analysis of proteins. The oligomeric structure of proteins is preserved during SDS-PAGE analysis if samples are kept at 4°C and not boiled prior to loading on a gel. Boiled and unboiled recombinant proteins (7.5 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (12% acrylamide). In both the boiled (denatured) and unboiled (nondenatured) samples, AcGFP1 runs as a uniform band of ~30 kDa due to its monomeric structure. The unboiled (nondenatured) DsRed-Express runs at a much higher molecular weight than its denatured (boiled) counterpart due to its oligomeric structure.

The pRetroQ-AcGFP1-C1 vector is a high-titer, self-inactivating retroviral expression vector that is optimized to eliminate promoter interference from the upstream LTR in the integrated provirus. This vector expresses a green fluorescent protein (GFP) from Aequorea coerulescens. pRetroQ-AcGFP1-C1 allows cloning of genes into the multiple cloning site (MCS) downstream of the AcGFP1 coding sequence, which are subsequently expressed as fusions to the C-terminus of the AcGFP1 protein. This vector allows the expression of fluorescent fusion proteins in difficult-to-transfect cells. It also contains a puromycin selection marker for selection of stable integrants. The unmodified vector will express AcGFP1 protein and may be used to produce marker virus to optimize infection protocols.

39 AcGFP is covered by U.S. Patent No. 7,432,053.

pAcGFP1-N In-Fusion Ready Vector encodes a green fluorescent protein from Aequorea coerulescens. The vector is prelinearized to enable directional In-Fusion cloning of PCR fragments onto the 5' end of the AcGFP1-encoding gene without further restriction digests. Sequences complementary to the vector sequences (flanking the site of linearization) need to be incorporated at the 5' ends of the PCR primers (see PT3865-2). The gene of interest is expressed as an N-terminal fusion to AcGFP1 in mammalian cells. The fluorescent protein coding sequence in this construct has been human codon-optimized for efficient expression and enhanced brightness in mammalian cells.

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein. Panel A. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by FPLC gel filtration chromatography. Overall protein absorbance (A280) and chromophore excitation (A477) of the eluted material were monitored simultaneously. AcGFP1 elutes from the column at a retention time corresponding to a molecular weight of 24 kDa. The calculated molecular weight of AcGFP1 is 26.9 kDa. Panel B. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by sucrose density ultracentrifugation using a continuous gradient. Panel C. Pseudonative gel analysis of proteins. The oligomeric structure of proteins is preserved during SDS-PAGE analysis if samples are kept at 4°C and not boiled prior to loading on a gel. Boiled and unboiled recombinant proteins (7.5 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (12% acrylamide). In both the boiled (denatured) and unboiled (nondenatured) samples, AcGFP1 runs as a uniform band of ~30 kDa due to its monomeric structure. The unboiled (nondenatured) DsRed-Express runs at a much higher molecular weight than its denatured (boiled) counterpart due to its oligomeric structure.

AcGFP1 elutes from the column at a retention time corresponding to a molecular weight of 24 kDa. The calculated molecular weight of AcGFP1 is 26.9 kDa. Panel B. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by sucrose density ultracentrifugation using a continuous gradient. Panel C. Pseudonative gel analysis of proteins. The oligomeric structure of proteins is preserved during SDS-PAGE analysis if samples are kept at 4°C and not boiled prior to loading on a gel. Boiled and unboiled recombinant proteins (7.5 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (12% acrylamide). In both the boiled (denatured) and unboiled (nondenatured) samples, AcGFP1 runs as a uniform band of ~30 kDa due to its monomeric structure. The unboiled (nondenatured) DsRed-Express runs at a much higher molecular weight than its denatured (boiled) counterpart due to its oligomeric structure.

A set of three vectors encoding a green fluorescent protein from Aequorea coerulescens. The pAcGFP1-N vectors are designed for studies in mammalian systems. These vectors allow expression of a protein of interest as a N-terminal fusion. Each vector contains the MCS in a different reading frame with respect to AcGFP1. These fusion vectors can also be used as cotransfection markers since the unmodified vectors will express fluorescent protein. All of the fluorescent protein coding sequences in these constructs have been human-codon-optimized for efficient expression in mammalian cells.

pAcGFP1-C1 encodes a green fluorescent protein from Aequorea coerulescens. pAcGFP1-C1 is designed for studies in mammalian systems. This vector allows expression of a protein of interest as a C-terminal fusion to AcGFP1. The fusion vector can also be used as a cotransfection marker since the unmodified vector will express fluorescent protein. The fluorescent protein coding sequence in this construct has been human-codon-optimized for efficient expression and enhanced brightness in mammalian cells.

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein. Panel A. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by FPLC gel filtration chromatography. Overall protein absorbance (A280) and chromophore excitation (A477) of the eluted material were monitored simultaneously. AcGFP1 elutes from the column at a retention time corresponding to a molecular weight of 24 kDa. The calculated molecular weight of AcGFP1 is 26.9 kDa. Panel B. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by sucrose density ultracentrifugation using a continuous gradient. Panel C. Pseudonative gel analysis of proteins. The oligomeric structure of proteins is preserved during SDS-PAGE analysis if samples are kept at 4°C and not boiled prior to loading on a gel. Boiled and unboiled recombinant proteins (7.5 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (12% acrylamide). In both the boiled (denatured) and unboiled (nondenatured) samples, AcGFP1 runs as a uniform band of ~30 kDa due to its monomeric structure. The unboiled (nondenatured) DsRed-Express runs at a much higher molecular weight than its denatured (boiled) counterpart due to its oligomeric structure.

AcGFP1 is a monomeric protein. Panel A. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by FPLC gel filtration chromatography. Overall protein absorbance (A280) and chromophore excitation (A477) of the eluted material were monitored simultaneously. AcGFP1 elutes from the column at a retention time corresponding to a molecular weight of 24 kDa. The calculated molecular weight of AcGFP1 is 26.9 kDa. Panel B. Recombinant AcGFP1 protein was analyzed by sucrose density ultracentrifugation using a continuous gradient. Panel C. Pseudonative gel analysis of proteins. The oligomeric structure of proteins is preserved during SDS-PAGE analysis if samples are kept at 4°C and not boiled prior to loading on a gel. Boiled and unboiled recombinant proteins (7.5 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (12% acrylamide). In both the boiled (denatured) and unboiled (nondenatured) samples, AcGFP1 runs as a uniform band of ~30 kDa due to its monomeric structure. The unboiled (nondenatured) DsRed-Express runs at a much higher molecular weight than its denatured (boiled) counterpart due to its oligomeric structure.

A set of three vectors encoding green fluorescent protein from Aequorea coerulescens. pAcGFP1 is a prokaryotic expression vector that also serves as a convenient source of fluorescent protein cDNA. In this vector, the full-length human-codon-optimized cDNA is flanked by distinct MCSs to facilitate excision from the vector and insertion into other eukaryotic or prokaryotic expression constructs. The other vectors, pAcGFP1-C1 and pAcGFP1-N1, are designed for studies in mammalian systems. These vectors allow expression of a protein of interest as a C- or N-terminal fusion, respectively. The fusion vectors can also be used as cotransfection markers since the unmodified vectors will express fluorescent protein. All of the fluorescent protein coding sequences in these constructs have been human-codon-optimized for efficient expression in mammalian cells.

The pLVX-AcGFP1-C1 vector is an HIV-1 based lentiviral expression vector that can produce recombinant lentivirus that efficiently transduces both dividing and non-dividing mammalian cells. This vector expresses a variant of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) from Aequorea coerulescens. pLVX-AcGFP1-C1 allows cloning of a cDNA into the multiple cloning site (MCS) downstream of the coding sequence for AcGFP1. The cDNA is subsequently expressed as a fusion to the C-terminus of the AcGFP1 protein. Thus,
this vector allows the expression of fluorescent fusion proteins in difficult-to-transfect cells. It also contains a puromycin selection marker for selection of stable transductants. The unmodified vector will express AcGFP1 protein and may be used to produce marker virus to optimize infection protocols.

pLVX-EF1α-AcGFP1-C1 is a lentiviral expression vector that can be used to generate high-titer lentivirus for transducing virtually any dividing or nondividing mammalian cell type, including primary and stem cells. The vector allows a gene-of-interest to be fused to the C-terminus of the green fluorescent protein AcGFP1. Expression of the fusion is driven by the human elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1α) promoter, which continues to be constitutively active even after stable integration of the vector into the host cell genome. Stable expression of the fusion allows the monitoring of a variety of cellular processes (such as differentiation in primary or stem cells) without the transgene silencing associated with CMV promoters. In addition, the vector allows efficient flow cytometric detection of stably or transiently transfected mammalian cells expressing AcGFP1 fusions, without time-consuming drug and clonal selection.

Expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cell lines is higher than expression driven by the CMV promoter

Expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cell lines is higher than expression driven by the CMV promoter

Expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cell lines is higher than expression driven by the CMV promoter. The mouse embryonic stem cell lines E14 (Panel A) and D3 (Panel B) were transduced by Lenti-X lentivirus, expressing AcGFP1 either under the control of the CMV promoter or the Elongation factor alpha (EF-1 alpha) promoter. The expression level of AcGFP1 in infected cells five days postinfection was monitored by FACS analysis using the FL1 channel. The expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in both stem cell lines was considerably higher compared to the CMV promoter. This is mainly due to a considerably lower rate of silencing of the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cells compared to the CMV promoter as published (Wang, et al. (2008) Stem Cells Dev 17:279–289).

A copy of the pLVX-EF1alpha-AcGFP1-N1 Vector product License Agreement can be found by clicking here.

pLVX-EF1α-AcGFP1-N1 is a lentiviral expression vector that can be used to generate high-titer lentivirus for transducing virtually any dividing or nondividing mammalian cell type, including primary and stem cells. The vector allows a gene-of-interest to be fused to the N-terminus of the green fluorescent protein AcGFP1. Expression of the fusion is driven by the human elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1α) promoter, which continues to be constitutively active even after stable integration of the vector into the host cell genome. Stable expression of the fusion allows the monitoring of a variety of cellular processes (such as differentiation in primary or stem cells) without the transgene silencing associated with CMV promoters. In addition, the vector allows efficient flow cytometric detection of stably or transiently transfected mammalian cells expressing AcGFP1 fusions, without time-consuming drug and clonal selection.

Expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cell lines is higher than expression driven by the CMV promoter

Expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cell lines is higher than expression driven by the CMV promoter

Expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cell lines is higher than expression driven by the CMV promoter. The mouse embryonic stem cell lines E14 (Panel A) and D3 (Panel B) were transduced by Lenti-X lentivirus, expressing AcGFP1 either under the control of the CMV promoter or the Elongation factor alpha (EF-1 alpha) promoter. The expression level of AcGFP1 in infected cells five days postinfection was monitored by FACS analysis using the FL1 channel. The expression of AcGFP1 driven by the EF-1 alpha promoter in both stem cell lines was considerably higher compared to the CMV promoter. This is mainly due to a considerably lower rate of silencing of the EF-1 alpha promoter in stem cells compared to the CMV promoter as published (Wang, et al. (2008) Stem Cells Dev 17:279–289).

pEF1α-AcGFP1-C1 is a mammalian expression vector that constitutively expresses a protein of interest fused to the C-terminus of the green fluorescent protein AcGFP1, even after stable integration of the vector into the host cell genome. Stable, constitutive expression of the bicistronic transcript is driven by the human elongation factor 1 alpha (EF1α) promoter, allowing the monitoring of a variety of cellular processes (such as differentiation in primary or stem cells) without the transgene silencing associated with CMV promoters. The unmodified vector can be used to express modified AcGFP1 in mammalian cells.
