CLIP-Cell™ 505 is a green fluorescent substrate that can be used to label CLIP-tag™ fusion proteins inside living cells, on cell surfaces or in vitro.
This is a cell-permeable substrate (BC-505) based on the Dyomics dye DY-505
It is suitable for standard fluorescein filter sets
It has an excitation maximum at 504 nm and emission maximum at 532 nm
Product Information
This package includes 50 nmol of CLIP-Cell 505 substrate, sufficient to make 10 ml of a 5 µM CLIP-tag fusion protein labeling solution.
The CLIP-tag protein labeling system enables the specific, covalent attachment of virtually any molecule to a protein of interest. CLIP-tag is a protein tag based on human O6-alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase (hAGT). CLIP-tag substrates are derivatives of benzylcytosine (BC). In the labeling reaction, the substituted benzyl group of the substrate is covalently attached to the reactive cysteine of CLIP-tag forming a stable thioether bond. Although CLIP-tag is based on the same protein as SNAP-tag, the benzylcytosine substrates form a separate class of substrates, different from the benzylguanine substrates recognized by SNAP-tag. CLIP-tag and SNAP-tag can be used for orthogonal and complementary labeling of two proteins simultaneously in the same cells.
There are two steps to using this system: subcloning and expression of the protein of interest as a CLIP-tag fusion with the CLIP-tag fusion proteins is described in the documentation supplied with CLIP-tag plasmids. The labeling of the fusion proteins is described in this document.

Product Notes
Storage: CLIP-Cell 505 should be stored at -20°C (long term) or at 4°C in the dark (short term, less than 4 weeks). Protect the substrate from light and moisture. With proper storage at -20°C the substrate should be stable for at least three years dry or 3 months dissolved in DMSO.
After addition of DMSO, pipette up and down at least 10-20 times and vortex vigorously for at least one full minute to ensure full dissolution of the substrate.
After diluting the substrate in complete medium, thoroughly pipette up and down at least 10 times to help reduce background.
Increasing substrate concentration and/or reaction time usually results in higher background and does not necessarily increase the signal-to-background ratio (SNR).
