    Product Description

    tdTomato mRNA (Cap-1; m1Ψ) encodes for tdTomato, a red fluorescent protein and derivative of Discosoma red fluorescent protein (DsRed) that displays excitation and emission maxima of 554 and 581 nm, respectively.1 It is capped using a co-transcriptional capping method, resulting in the naturally occurring Cap-1 structure with high capping efficiency. tdTomato mRNA is also polyadenylated and modified with N1-methylpseudouridine (m1Ψ) to reduce the host cell immune response and enhance mRNA stability. Encapsulation of tdTomato mRNA (Cap-1; m1Ψ) in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) can be used for mRNA delivery and expression of tdTomato.
