Description Streptavidin is a biotin-binding protein found in the culture broth of the bacterium Streptomyces avidinii. Streptavidin binds 4 moles of biotin per mole of protein with a high affinity virtually unmatched in nature (Kd~10-15). Streptavidin lacks carbohydrate side chains present on avidin and has an isoelectric point nearer to neutrality where most useful biological interactions occur (pI of 5-6 vs 10 for avidin). As a result, streptavidin frequently exhibits lower levels of non-specific binding than does avidin when the proteins are used in applications relying upon the formation of avidin/biotin complexes (Chaiet and Wolf,1964). Excitation Wavelength: 650nm Emission Wavelength: 667nm Applications: Suitable for Immunofluorescence, FLISA (Fluorescent) and Western Blot.. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: FLISA (Fluorescent): 1:10,000-1:50,000 Immunofluorescence microscopy: 1:1000-1:5000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Cy5 conjugates are sensitive to light.
