description:

CM-EGFP is a fusion protein, consisting of Cell membrane (CM) localization signal sequence and enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). EGFP is a modified green fluorescent protein with higher brightness and stability, suitable for live cell imaging. By fusing EGFP with CM signal sequences, the dynamic changes of CM can be observed in real time in living cells, and it is especially suitable for studying membrane-related processes such as signal transduction, membrane protein interactions, and membrane structure changes. EZ Cap CM-EGFP Probe mRNA (m1Ψ) is provided at a concentration of ~1 mg/ml with Cap1 structure. It is specifically used for the expression of EGFP markers in Cell membrane. There are currently two ways to cap mRNA: One is co-transcription method, by adding Cap analogues into the transcription process. The other is enzymatic Capping. After transcription, Cap0 capping is performed by Vaccinia virus Capping Enzyme (VCE), GTP and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). The Cap0 is then generated into the Cap1 through 2´-O-Methyltransferase and SAM. Cap1 Capping can also be performed by adding VCE, 2´-O-Methyltransferase, GTP and SAM in a one-step process. Cap 1 structure is more ideal for mammalian systems and possess higher transcription efficiency than Cap 0 structure. The addition of N1-Methylpseudo-UTP(m1Ψ) and poly(A) tail suppress RNA-mediated innate immune activation and increase the stability and lifetime of the mRNA in vitro and in vivo. Poly(A) tail also plays an important role in enhancing the efficiency of translation initiation.
