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

NMNAT2, also known as NMNAT-2, belongs to the nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) enzyme family. NMNAT is a central enzyme in NAD+ biosynthesis, transferring the adenylyl moiety of ATP to nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) or nicotinic acid mononucleotide (NaMN) resulting in the formation of NAD+ or NaAD+ and the release of pyrophosphate. NMNAT2 is predominantly expressed in human pancreas, insulinoma as well as in the brain, especially in the cerebrum, cerebellum, occipital lobe, frontal lobe, temporal lobe and putamen. Immunofluorescence microscopy localized endogenous NMNAT2 to the Golgi apparatus in human cell line. Endogenous NMNAT2 seem to be a labile axon survival factor, because specific depletion of NMNAT2 is sufficient to induce Wallerian-like degeneration of uninjured axons which endogenous NMNAT1 and NMNAT3 cannot prevent. Thus endogenous NMNAT2 represents an exciting new therapeutic target for axonal disorders.
