Live cell imaging tools for endogenous gene tagging – visualise proteins and biological processes in real time

Live cell imaging is an important method in biological research. By tagging cell components and organelles with a florescent protein, it's possible to track dynamic biological processes and elucidate protein localisation and function in real time.

Express fluorescence-tagged proteins in your cell lines

With Cellectis bioresearch's VizuCELL TAG it kit, researchers can engineer cell lines to express fluorescence-tagged proteins in the cytoskeleton (alpha-tubulin or beta-actin) or nucleus (histone H2B 1-J), controlled by the endogenous promoter.

The VizuCELL TAG it kit is based on the same technology as the VizuCELL 'off-the-shelf' collection of cell lines, but allows researchers to tag their own cell lines using TALEN™ technology and the corresponding donor matrices.

Benefits
