AAV with mIP2 promoter driven EBFP2
This AAV expresses EBFP2 driven by an islet mIP2 promoter.
This promoter is based on the 1.1 Kb regulatory region of mouse pre-proinsulin II gene, also known as ins2, ins-2, ins-II, insulin-II, or Mody4. It is commonly used for beta cell-specific gene expression in the pancreatic islet. (m)INS2 promoter is also referred as the mIP2 or mIP2 promoter.
EBFP2 is new version of blue fluorescent protein (BFP), with an Excitation/Emission spectrum of 380nm/448nm. EBFP2 is the brightest and most photo-stable of the BFPs; it is useful for situations in which a blue probe is required, especially when two-photon excitation is used.
Ready-to-use AAV expressing EBFP2 driven by an islet mIP2 promoter. Available in AAV1, AAV2, AAV5, AAV6, AAV8, AAV9, AAV-DJ and other serotypes.
