QXY21 [equivalent to QSY-21]

In the presence of an activating agent (e.g., EDC, DCC etc) QSY-21 acid reacts with the primary amines (R-NH<sub>2</sub>) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The resulting dye conjugates are quite stable.

QXY21 is the same molecule to QSY-21 acid (ThermoFisher). QSY-21 has a broad and intense absorption at ~661 nm maxima with no detectable fluorescence, making it useful as an acceptor in fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) applications. It is a common long-wavelength quencher to best pair with Cy5, Alexa Fluor 647, iFluor 647 or other spectrally similar fluorescent dyes.
