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

Calmodulin 2, also known as CALM2, is a calmodulin. Calmodulin 2 mediates the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels and other proteins by Ca(2+). It is involved in a genetic pathway that regulates the centrosome cycle and progression through cytokinesis. Calmodulin 2 gene may be a genetic determinant of hip osteoarthritis (OA). OA is a degenerative disease characterized by gradual loss of articular cartilage and is a leading cause of disability in elderly populations. CALM2 was most abundantly expressed in articular chondrocytes and OA cartilage.
