Phalloidin-Janelia Fluor® 646
Purity: ≥90%
Biological Activity
Key information: Phalloidin-Janelia Fluor® 646 is a red fluorescent F-actin probe. It binds and labels specifically F-actin.Used for: Phalloidin-Janelia Fluor® 646 can be used to visualize and quantify F-actin in tissue sections, cell cultures or cell-free experiments with optimal results in formaldehyde-fixed and permeabilized cells.
Application: confocal microscopy, super-resolution microscopy (SRM) including dSTORM and STED and flow cytometry.
Properties and Photophysical Data: Phalloidin-Janelia Fluor® 646 is composed of the F-actin probe, Phalloidin (Cat. No. 4535), conjugated to Janelia Fluor® 646 (Cat. No. 6148). Excitation and emission maxima (λ) are 646 nm and 664 nm, respectively; quantum yield = 0.54; extinction coefficient = 152,000 M-1cm-1.

Application of Phalloidin-Janelia Fluor® 646. HeLa cells were fixed for 10 minutes with 4% formaldehyde in PBS and permeabilized with PBS/0.25% Triton X-100 for 6 minutes. An additional post-fixation step was performed twice with 1% formaldehyde in PBS followed by 3 washes with PBS. Phalloidin Janelia Fluor® 646 was prepared as a 10 μM stock solution diluted in methanol and diluted to a working concentration of 20 nM in PBS. Stained cells were imaged with a Leica SP8X WLL upright confocal microscope.
