Description
This fluorescent protein has an excitation wavelength of 690 nm and an emission wavelength of 713 nm. The extinction coefficient is 98000 M-1 cm-1. Its quantum yield is 6.3%. Its photostability half-life is 960 seconds. Its pKa is 4.5. Near-infrared fluorescent proteins are good for long-term in vivo imaging and exhibit high brightness in bacteria, mammalian cells, and mice.
Notes
The PstI site and EcoRI site within the reporter has been removed. There is a Bbs1 site within the coding sequence so be wary if using that enzyme for Golden Gate DNA assembly.
