AAV with CAG2 promoter driven ECFP
This AAV expresses ECFP driven by an ubiquitous CAG2 promoter.
The CAG2 promoter is derived from the commonly used 1.8kb CAG/CBA (also called CAGGS) promoter. To increase the cloning capacity of size-limiting vectors using the CAG promoter, such as AAV or lentiviral vectors, CAG2 was developed by deleting a portion of about 0.6Kb of the chicken beta-actin intron from the original CAG promoter.
Enhanced Cyan fluorescence protein(ECFP) is a cyan variant from the Aequorea GFP, with a Excitation/Emission spectrum around 434nm/477nm. Other versions of fluorescent proteins with similar excitation and emission spectrums include mcerulean3, mTurquoise, and SCFP.
Ready-to-use AAV expressing ECFP driven by an ubiquitous CAG2 promoter. Available in AAV1, AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, AAV9, AAV-DJ and other serotypes.
