Alexa Fluor™ 488 Hydroxylamine is useful as a cell tracer and as a reactive dye for labeling aldehydes or ketones in polysaccharides or glycoproteins. Alexa Fluor™ 488 is a bright, green fluorescent dye with excitation ideally suited to the 488 nn laser line. Used for stable signal generation in imaging and flow cytometry, Alexa Fluor™ 488 dye is water soluble and pH-insensitive from pH 4 to pH 10. In addition to reactive dye formulations, we offer Alexa Fluor™ 488 dye conjugated to a variety of antibodies, peptides, proteins, tracers, and amplification substrates optimized for cellular labeling and detection.

Detailed information about this AlexaFluor™ Hydroxylamine:

  • Fluorophore label: Alexa Fluor™ 488 dye
  • Reactive group: Hydroxylamine
  • Reactivity: Aldehydes or ketones
  • Ex/Em of the conjugate: 494/518 nm
  • Extinction coefficient: 77,000 cm-1M-1
  • Spectrally similar dyes: FITC, GFP
  • Molecular weight: 895.07

Cell Tracking and Tracing Applications

Alexa Fluor™ hydrazides and Hydroxylamines are useful as low molecular weight, membrane-impermeant, aldehyde-fixable cell tracers, exhibiting brighter fluorescence and greater photostability than cell tracers derived from other spectrally similar fluorophores. They are easily loaded into cells by microinjection, infusion from patch pipette, or uptake induced by our Influx™ Pinocytic Cell-Loading Reagent (Cat. No. I14402).

Glycoprotein and Polysaccharide Labeling Applications

The Alexa Fluor™ hydrazides and Hydroxylamines are reactive molecules that can be used to add a fluorescent label to biomolecules containing aldehydes or ketones. Aldehydes and ketones can be introduced into polysaccharides and glycoproteins by periodate-mediated oxidation of vicinal diols. Galactose oxidase can also be used to oxidize terminal galactose residues of glycoproteins to aldehydes.

Hydrazide vs Hydroxylamine

Hydrazine derivatives react with ketones and aldehydes to yield relatively stable hydrazones. Hydroxylamine derivatives (aminooxy compounds) react with aldehydes and ketones to yield oximes. Oximes are superior to hydrazones with respect to hydrolytic stability. Both hydrazones and oximes can be reduced with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) to further increase the stability of the linkage.

Abstract
Optical properties of Alexa 488 and Cy5 immobilized on a glass surface.
Authors:Wang L, Gaigalas AK, Reipa V
Journal:Biotechniques
PubMed ID:15679095
'The absorption and emission spectra were measured for Cy5 and Alexa 488 fluorophores confined on a glass surface. The data were obtained using fluorometry and spectroscopic ellipsometry. Red shifts of the surface-immobilized fluorophore absorption spectra relative to the fluorophore spectra in aqueous solution were observed using both methods. We interpret ... More

'For multiple site-specific conjugations of bioactive molecules to a single-chain antibody (scFv) molecule, we have constructed a human anti HER2 receptor, scFv, with a C-terminal fusion polypeptide containing 1, 3, or 17 threonine (Thr) residues. The C-terminal extended fusion polypeptides of these recombinant scFv fusion proteins are used as the ... More

'A general strategy for the site-specific dual-labeling of proteins for single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer is presented. A genetically encoded unnatural ketone amino acid was labeled with a hydroxylamine-containing fluorophore with high yield (>95%) and specificity. This methodology was used to construct dual-labeled T4 lysozyme variants, allowing the study of ... More

'Removal of nucleobases from the DNA backbone leads to the formation of abasic sites. The rate of abasic site formation is significantly increased for chemically damaged nucleobases. Thus, abasic sites serve as general biomarkers for the quantification of DNA damage. Herein, we show that capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence (CE-LIF) ... More
