ZnAF-2

[Synonym ]:
6-{2-[Bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]ethylamino}fluorescein

Biological Activity

[Description]:

ZnAF-2, 6-iso- is a cell-impermeable compound that acts as a high-affinity Zn2?-specific fluorescent probe (Kd = 2.7 nM). It exhibits low basal fluorescence with an approximately 51-fold increase in fluorescence intensity upon stoichiometric (1:1) binding to Zn2?. Little affinity for Ca2?, Mg2?, Na? or K?.
