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
Peroxiredoxin-1, also known as Thioredoxin peroxidase 2, Natural killer cell-enhancing factor A, PRDX1, and PAGA, is a member of the ahpC/TSA family. Peroxiredoxin-1 is constitutively expressed in most human cells. It is induced to higher levels upon serum stimulation in untransformed and transformed cells. Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are a family of antioxidant enzymes that are also known as scavengers of peroxide in mammalian cells. The overexpression of Peroxiredoxin-1, which is one of the peroxiredoxins that is a ubiquitously expressed protein, was related to a poor prognosis in several types of human cancers. Peroxiredoxin-1 is involved in redox regulation of the cell. It reduces peroxides with reducing equivalents provided through the thioredoxin system but not from glutaredoxin and may play an important role in eliminating peroxides generated during metabolism. Peroxiredoxin-1 Might participate in the signaling cascades of growth factors and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by regulating the intracellular concentrations of H2O2. The reduced Peroxiredoxin-1 expression is an important factor in esophageal squamous cancer progression and could serve as a useful prognostic marker.
