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
CABP3, also known as CABP5, belongs to a subfamily of calcium binding proteins, which share similarity to calmodulin. Calcium binding proteins are an important component of calcium mediated cellular signal transduction. Expression of CABP3 gene is retina-specific. The mouse homolog of CABP3 has been shown to express in the inner nuclear layer of the retina, suggested its role in neuronal functioning. The specific function of CABP3 gene is unknown. Study of the transcripts and genomic structure revealed that the 5 end of this gene is complementary and reverse to that of the CABP5 gene, and the sequence beyond the overlapping region is nearly identical to that of CABP5. Thus, these two genes encode the protein products with distinct N-terminal halves but identical C-terminal halves. CABP3 inhibits calcium-dependent inactivation of L-type calcium channel and shifts voltage dependence of activation to more depolarized membrane potentials. It is also involved in the transmission of light signals.
