Why EF1alpha promoter is so special?

Human elongation factor-1 alpha (EF-1 alpha) is a constitutive promoter of human origin that can be used to drive ectopic gene expression in various in vitro and in vivo contexts. […]

DMTMM A Novel Coupling Reagent

Propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P®) is a very efficient, nontoxic coupling reagent especially suited for connecting sterically hindered amino acids. A further advantage is the easy removal of byproducts by extraction of the […]

Applications of Channelrhodopsin

Channelrhodopsins can be readily expressed in excitable cells such as neurons using a variety of transfection techniques (viral transfection, electroporation, gene gun). The light-absorbing pigment retinal is present in most […]

Discovery of Channelrhodopsin

Motility and photoorientation of microalgae have been studied over more than hundred years in many laboratories worldwide. In 1980, Ken Foster developed the first consistent theory about the functionality of […]

Predesigned/Validated siRNA

Instructions: Please select a siRNA database from the pull down menu. At present we offer control duplexes and pre-designed siRNAs for over 17,000 reviewed genes based on the NCBI Refseq […]

miRBase: the microRNA database

miRBase provides the following services: The miRBase database is a searchable database of published miRNA sequences and annotation. Each entry in the miRBase Sequence database represents a predicted hairpin portion […]

List of Protein Tags

Peptide tags AviTag, a peptide allowing biotinylation by the enzyme BirA and so the protein can be isolated by streptavidin (GLNDIFEAQKIEWHE) Calmodulin-tag, a peptide bound by the protein calmodulin (KRRWKKNFIAVSAANRFKKISSSGAL) […]
