| Targets |
Fluorescein Biotin targets the biotin-binding sites of avidin and streptavidin. The compound is a ligand for avidin and streptavidin, which are proteins that bind biotin with extremely high affinity. The biotin moiety of Fluorescein Biotin binds to the biotin-binding pocket of avidin or streptavidin. This binding induces significant fluorescence quenching. The compound is used as a fluorescent probe for detecting and quantifying biotin-binding sites.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Fluorescein Biotin is used as a fluorescent probe for detecting and quantifying biotin-binding sites by fluorescence or absorbance. Upon binding to avidin or streptavidin, the fluorescence or absorbance of Fluorescein Biotin is quenched. This property makes it useful for studying biotin-binding proteins and for developing detection assays. The compound is also used in fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. No other in vitro activities have been reported.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity of Fluorescein Biotin has not been characterized. The compound is used as a detection reagent in vitro and is not intended for in vivo administration. No animal studies have been conducted to evaluate its pharmacokinetics, efficacy, or safety in vivo. The compound is used exclusively in laboratory detection applications.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for Fluorescein Biotin typically involve binding studies with avidin or streptavidin. The compound is incubated with avidin or streptavidin in appropriate buffer. Binding is detected by measuring the fluorescence intensity at 485/535 nm or absorbance. The fluorescence quenching upon binding is monitored. The binding affinity can be determined by titration experiments. Competition assays with unlabeled biotin can be used to assess specificity.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for Fluorescein Biotin typically involve staining cells or cell lysates. The compound is added to cells or samples, and binding to biotin-binding proteins is detected by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
