Product Information
Histone-Label* is a fluorescent chromatin probe for direct staining of chromosomes and nuclei. It consists of an anti-histone VHH conjugated to the fluorescent dye ATTO488. For IF, microscopy of histones, chromosomes, and nuclei.
| Description | Histone-Label* immunostains chromatin throughout the cell cycle (interphase chromatin, chromatin condensation and mitotic chromosomes) due to specific binding to histone H2A-H2B heterodimers: • Specific probe for direct immunostaining of histones, chromosomes, and nuclei • Labels histones throughout the nuclei • Better penetration into densely packed nuclei • Higher image resolution • Monovalent VHHs do not cluster their epitopes*Commercialized under a license of INRAE, the French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment |
