Biochem/physiol Actions

Strong ligand for retinoic acid receptor proteins

Features and Benefits

LightOx22 is a synthetic analogue of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA), that exhibits solvatochromatic fluorescence emission when excited with UV or 405 nm light. The compound is a strong ligand for the retinoic acid receptor proteins (RARs) and related cellular retinoic acid binding proteins (CRABPI/II) and can, therefore, be used as a replacement for ATRA in cellular assays involving retinoid signaling processes. LightOx22 can be utilised to study retinoid behaviour using fluorescence microscopy, employed in a competitive fluorometric ligand-binding assay for direct determination of the strength of binding of non-fluorescent retinoids to a protein target, and as a fluorophore in fluorescence spectroscopy.

Product can be used with our line of photoreactors: Including Penn PhD (Z744035) & SynLED 2.0 (Z744080)
