Tide Fluor™ 3 succinimidyl ester [TF3 SE]*Superior replacement for Cy3*

Tide Fluor™ 3 (TF3) family has the spectral properties essentially identical to those of Cy3. Compared to Cy3 probes TF3 family has much stronger fluorescence and higher photostability. Additionally their fluorescence is pH-independent from pH 3 to 11. These characteristics make this new dye family a superior alternative to Cy3. TF3-labeled peptides and nucleotides exhibit much stronger fluorescence and higher photostability than the ones labeled with Cy3. In pairing with our Tide Quencher™ 3 (TQ3), a variety of FRET peptides and nucleotides can be developed for detecting proteases and molecular beacons with enhanced sensitivity and stability.

Fluorescent dye NHS esters (or succinimidyl esters) are the most popular tool for conjugating dyes to a peptide, protein, antibody, amino-modified oligonucleotide or nucleic acid. NHS esters react readily with the primary amines (R-NH<sub>2</sub>) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The resulting dye conjugates are quite stable.

The schematic procedures of coupling reaction of aa-RNA and NHS ester-linked Tide Fluor 3; (a) Schematic illustration of the labeling workflow at U22 position. Residues highlighted on secondary structure of U22-aa-rbA in blue represent the first 13 nucleotides synthesized in the initiation stage, residues highlighted in orange, gree, and red represent 3step in elongation stage. The aminoally atom is represented by red dot at position 22, and TF3 is represented by green star. (b) Illustration of reaction between aminoallyl-modified RNA and NHS ester-linked fluorescent dyes. (c) HPLC profiles for original method efficiency. The spectra in black is original method, in red is unreacted aa-RNA.
