Annexin V-Cy5.5 conjugate
Annexins are a family of proteins that bind to phospholipid membranes in the presence of calcium. Annexin V is a valuable tool for studying cell apoptosis. It is used as a probe to detect cells which have expressed phosphatidylserine on the cell surface, a feature found in apoptosis as well as other forms of cell death. In apoptosis, PS is transferred to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane. The appearance of phosphatidylserine on the cell surface is a universal indicator of the initial/intermediate stages of cell apoptosis and can be detected before morphological changes can be observed. There are a variety of parameters that can be used for monitoring cell viability. Annexin V-dye conjugates are widely used to monitor cell apoptosis through measuring the translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS). Cy5.5-Annexin V probe is one of the most popular fluorescent dye-Annexin V conjugates used for monitoring cell apoptosis.
Fluorescence images of HeLa cells labeled with Annexin V-Cy5.5 conjugate (Cat#20067). HeLa cells at 100,000 cells/well/100 µL were seeded overnight in a 96-well black wall/clear bottom plate. Cells were treated with (Right) or without (Left) 500 nM staurosporine (SS) at 37 ºC for 4 hours. Cells were then incubated with Annexin V-Cy5.5 conjugate (Red) and measured using fluorescence microscope with a Cy5 filter. Viable cells were labeled with Cellbrite™ Orange (Shown as Green).
