Background:

The dimeric green fluorescent protein TurboGFP is derived from the green fluorescent protein CopGFP of the copepod Pontellina plumata. It possesses bright green fluorescence with excitation maximum at 482 nm and emission maximum at 502 nm. TurboGFP is a fast maturating protein: its fluorescent signal is visible earlier than other green fluorescent proteins. TurboGFP shares only about 20% sequence identity with jellyfish GFP variants. Therefore, most anti-GFP antibodies do not bind to TurboGFP. TurboGFP is mainly intended for applications where fast appearance of bright fluorescence is crucial. It is specially recommended for cell and organelle labeling and tracking the promoter activity. Destabilized TurboGFP variant allows accurate analysis of rapid and/or transient events in gene regulation.

Dilution factors are presented in the form of a range because the optimal dilution is a function of many factors, such as antigen density, permeability, etc. The actual dilution used must be determined empirically.
