SulfoCy7 SE（=Cy7 NHS=Cy7 SE）
Sulfo-Cy7 SE（=Cy7 NHS）
Cy7 NHS is water soluble near infrared dye，specially useful for NIR imaging. Water soluble Cyanine Cy7 NHS ester is for the labeling of various amine-containing molecules in aqueous phase without use of any organic co-solvent. This water soluble near infrared dye is therefore particularly useful for the labeling of pepties, proteins and oligos etc which denature in the presence of organic co-solvents, as well as for proteins with low solubility. This dye is highly hydrophilic and water-soluble. Near infrared fluorescent imaging takes advantage of transparency of biological tissues at particular range of wavelengths. The method is non-destructive, and allows to monitor distribution of various labeled molecules in live organisms. Sulfo-Cyanine7 NHS ester reagent allows to prepare sulfo-Cyanine7-labeled biomolecules, such as proteins, with ease. Dye labeled molecules can be subsequently used for various research and drug design related experiments.

Succinimidyl esters are proven to be the best reagents for amine modifications because the amide bonds that are formed are essentially identical to, and as stable as the natural peptide bonds. These reagents are generally stable and show good reactivity and selectivity with aliphatic amines. There are few factors that need be considered when SE compounds are used for conjugation reaction:
1). Solvents: Dissolve NHS ester in 1/10 reaction anhydrous volume of DMF or DMSO.
2). Reaction pH: The labeling reactions of amines with succinimidyl esters are strongly pH dependent. Amine-reactive reagents react with non-protonated aliphatic amine groups, including the terminal amines of proteins and the e-amino groups of lysines. Thus amine acylation reactions are usually carried out above pH 7.5. Protein modifications by succinimidyl esters can typically be done at pH 7.5-8.5, whereas isothiocyanates may require a pH 9.0-10.0 for optimal conjugations.
3). Reaction Buffers: Buffers that contain free amines such as Tris and glycine and thiol compounds must be avoided when using an amine-reactive reagent. Ammonium salts (such as ammonium sulfate and ammonium acetate) that are widely used for protein precipitation must also be removed (such as viadinlysis) before performing dye conjugations.
4). Reaction Temperature: Most conjugations are done at room temperature. However, either elevated or reduced temperature may be required for a particular labeling reaction.
5) Use 10:1 molar ratio Dye NHS/ protein to perform the labeling. Calculate required amount of NHS ester and the protein.
6) Add NHS ester solution to the solution of biomolecule, and vortex well. Keep on ice overnight, or at room temperature during at least 4 hours.
7) Purify the conjugation. The dye-protein conjugate purification by using a Sephadex G-25 column. Add PBS (pH 7.2-7.4) to the desired sample to complete the column purification. Combine the fractions that contain the desired dye-protein conjugate.
8) Determine the optimal dye/protein ratio (optional):Each protein requires distinct dye/protein ratio, which also depends on the properties of dyes. Over labeling of a protein could detrimentally affects its binding affinity while the protein conjugates of low dye/protein ratio gives reduced sensitivity.
