Description

8pyDTZ is a pyridyl diphenylterazine (DTZ) analog and an ATP-independent pyridyl substrate of LumiLuc luciferase. 8pyDTZ exhibits spectrally shifted emission. 8pyDTZ has excellent biocompatibility and superior in vivo sensitivity. 8pyDTZ can be used for in vivo luminescence imaging[1].

In Vitro

Compared to DTZ, 8pyDTZ (compounds 3c) is able to emit red-shifted chemiluminescence or bioluminescence. 8pyDTZ shows the most red-shifted emission and red-shifted photons can penetrate through tissue better[1].
LumiLuc-8pyDTZ in human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293T cells transiently expressing the luciferase is evaluated. The LumiLuc-8pyDTZ pair produces ∼3-5-fold more bioluminescence than teLuc-8pyDTZ. To compare far-red emission intensities of bioluminescent reporters, HEK 293T cells in the presence of a 600-700 nm band pass filter are imaged. At substrate concentrations from 6.25 to 100 μM, LumiLuc-8pyDTZ consistently produces 1.6-3.9-fold higher photon flux than teLuc-DTZ. No ATP perturbation is observed from 8pyDTZ-treated, LumiLucexpressing cells[1].

In Vivo

LumiLuc-8pyDTZ pair is compared with several benchmark reporters in a tumor xenograft mouse model. LumiLuc-8pyDTZ shows high sensitivity and does not need organic cosolvents for in vivo administration. LumiScarlet-8pyDTZ is comparable to Akaluc-AkaLumine, the brightest ATP-dependent luciferase-luciferin pair, for detecting cells in deep tissues of mice[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
