OFPSpark Tag Information

OFPSpark is a red (orange) fluorescent protein (excitation/emission maxima are 549 and 566 nm, respectively) derived from DsRed. Possessing high photostability and pH stability, OFPSpark is more than twice brighter than mOrange2. Fast OFPSpark maturation makes it clearly detectable in mammalian cells as early as within 8 hrs after transfection. OFPSpark can be expressed and detected in a wide range of organisms. Mammalian cells transiently transfected with OFPSpark expression vectors produce bright fluorescence in 8 hrs after transfection. No cytotoxic effects or visible protein aggregation are observed. For its monomer structure, OFPSpark performs well in some fusions and protein labeling applications.

Background Information

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family, member A3 (ALDH1A3), also known as Retinaldehyde dehydrogenase 3 (RALDH3), which belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family. ALDH1A3 is a novel Cancer stem cell (CSC) marker with potential clinical prognostic applicability, and demonstrates a clear correlation between CSC prevalence and the development of metastatic breast cancer. The retinoic acid (RA) biosynthesis enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A3 (ALDH1A3) is a putative androgen-responsive gene in human prostate cancer epithelial (LNCaP) cells. The RA biosynthesis enzyme ALDH1A3 is androgen responsive and (ii) DHT up-regulation of ALDH1A3 can increase the oxidation of retinal to RA and indirectly affect RA bioactivity and metabolism.
