System Biosciences provides a line of lentivector-based constructs and pre-packaged virus for labelling organelles with GFP or RFP-usion proteins. These Cyto-Tracers enable visualisation of cellular structures using real-time fluorescence microscopy in vivo. Vectors can either be transfected into the cells directly or packaged into lentiviral particles to generate stable GFP tracer cell lines.
Benefits of using Cyto-Tracers
• Stable lentivector-based system
• Stable reporter cell lines created
• Ideal for co-localisation studies
• Monitor cellular dynamics and functional studies in real time
